The Kashimira police chased down two chain snatchers who were involved in seven chain snatching cases in the area. Officials said the two had been committing crimes using fake number plates which made tracing them difficult. The police had checked the number plate which was caught on CCTV cameras with the RTO only to find it was a fake number.

The local crime branch (LCB) in the area had activated their network and on Tuesday, the police received a tip-off that the same bike being seen on the highway. Officials said, a team immediately rushed to the place. When they saw the police, the two men started speeding to evade arrest. The police vehicle chased them down and had to dash the bike from behind to ensure they fall and were caught.
