So far, the police had recovered 50 stolen bikes from different miscreants this year, the SHO said.

The team led by ASI Pawan Kumar raided a dhaba, near Chak 73 LLP on the Sriganganagar-Srikaranpur road last night, and arrested Daya Ram Khyaliwala, Harpal Singh and Jaskaran Singh. A car that the trio had allegedly stolen from a showroom, a few hours back, was recovered. The investigation indicated that the miscreants were waiting for a buyer.
