The Charkop police arrested a man, who allegedly cheated people putting their expensive motorbikes for sale on a popular product selling website. The officials have recovered 5 high-end motorbikes including Kawasaki Ninja, KTM, and KTM Duke from his possession worth Rs 12 lakh. The accused has been identified by the police as Arif Vakil Khan (19) a Ghatkopar West resident.
According to the police, his modus operandi was to target people and bikes priced in lakhs that were put on the website. He would approach them, posing as a buyer and after finalising the deal, he would flee with the vehicles on the pretext of taking a test drive. A few days later, he would take the bikes off sale. He would also spread this information among his friends, said a police officer.
