On Sunday night, two bike-borne men were stopped at the picket point at Ganda Nala Road in Uttam Nagar. Instead of stopping, they tried to flee to evade the police. However, the suspects were overpowered, controlled and interrogated. On interrogation, they were identified as 18-year-old Yugant Shivani alias Hero and 22-year-old Md. Sahib alias Rider.
During interrogation, it was found that the motorcycle they were riding was stolen. Two more motorcycles were recovered on their instance which were used to perform stunts. Both the men are part of a prominent group of stunt bikers, said Anto Alphonse, DCP (Dwarka).
Both the accused also revealed that both of them started performing bike stunts at an early age. They also used to consume drugs and keep bad company. They were inspired by Bollywood movies which were based on stunt bikers but financial constraint came in their way. To earn some quick money, they started auto thefts and snatchings. They would spend the loot on girlfriends and drugs. They wanted to accumulate money to buy a high-end bike for better stunts, the police said.
With their arrest, 10 cases of auto-lifting and snatchings have been solved. Sahib was previously involved in 21 cases of auto-theft and snatchings and was released from jail in February.
