Authorities recovered three vehicles, including Mahindra Thars and a Scorpio, valued at approximately 60 lakh rupees. One additional suspect remains at large.

In the Beawar district of Rajasthan, police arrested three suspects belonging to a motorcycle theft gang. The operation, prompted by a theft report in September, led to the recovery of 10 stolen motorcycles through the use of CCTV footage and informant intelligence.
