Bhabua: The chemistry teacher of a Patna college have been arrested on charge of being the mastermind of a gang of vehicle lifters.


Police said Amarnath Gupta, a chemistry teacher of the Guru Gobind Singh College, was arrested by a police team from state's Kaimur district from his Rajendra Nagar residence here yesterday. Another person Girija Kesri was also apprehended from the city.

The arrests were made in the wake of one Raju Kumar lodging an FIR with the Mohania police station in Kaimur district alleging Gupta and Kesri sold him a vehicle with fake documents.

The complainant said he returned the vehicle on discovery that the chassis number did not match the one mentioned in the document. However, he failed to get his money back despite repeated pleas, the FIR said.

Superintendent of police, Kaimur, PK Srivastava said the police were probing if Keshri and Gupta had links with other vehicle lifter gangs.
