The team has constituted under the supervision of DSP Ashok Sharma . It may be recalled that some days back Pacca Danga police arrested Sohail Ahmed with a motorcycle when he was on way to his house. Sources said during sustained interrogation of the suspect by the special team he admitted his involvement in the case and narrated startling revelations of getting financed vehicles on fake names and addresses from a motor company through SBI Bahu Plaza, getting them registered with RTO Jammu without hypothecation and then selling these in Srinagar on cheap rates by him and a gang of four other members headed by one Pushpinder resident of Subash Nagar. On his revelations, the stolen motorcycle has been recovered besides the two Wagnor cars financed by SBI Bahu Plaza from Srinagar and one Swift car along with a computer used for fabrication of fake sale letters recovered from Jammu.

Sources said the modus operandi of these cheaters was to liaise with SBI Branch Bahu Plaza through the motor company. They used to manage vehicles financed on fake names and addresses thereafter they used to produce fake sale letters without hypothecation with RTO Jammu for registration of these vehicles on production of fake receipts of electricity bills as a proof of identity after registration with RTO Jammu, the gang used to sell these vehicles in Srinagar on cheap rates assuring the customer that the vehicle is not financed and that they are in need of money. Sources said the investigation of the case is vigorously going on and with the arrest of other three gang members more revelations are expected. This gang operating independently is the second one busted by Jammu police during the past some days.
