Petrol thieves leave vehicle tanks empty

The residents of Bajaj Nagar in the Waluj Industrial area are facing a severe menace of petrol thefts from their vehicles recently. The petrol thieves cut the petrol pipes of the two-wheeler vehicles and steal the petrol. Hence, the residents have demanded the police take stern action against these increased incidents of petrol thefts.

Several workers working in various factories in the Waluj industrial area live in the Bajaj Nagar area. The families residing here are lower-middle and middle-class families.

These workers work in shifts in the factories. When they come home from the factory and are sleeping during the afternoon and even at night, the petrol thieves take advantage of this situation and steal petrol from their vehicles. The thieves not only steal petrol from the two-wheelers but also from the four-wheelers parked in front of their houses or in the compounds of the housing societies.
