In what can be counted as one of the fastest stolen-and-recovered incidents, a Mahindra Bolero belonging to senior police inspector, Mantralaya security, was stolen around 3 am on Friday night from his police residential quarters in Mahim, only to be found abandoned by cops at 10 am on Saturday. <img alt="" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/apr/Cops-van.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 351px;" /> Representation pic Senior Police Inspector Dilip Kendre had parked his official vehicle, a Mahindra Bolero, outside building No 8, New Police colony, near Raheja Hospital, Mahim, on Friday night. &ldquo;On Saturday morning Kendre found the jeep missing. He approached the Mahim police and lodged a theft case around 7 am,&rdquo; said a police officer from Mahim police station. The police started a search and a message about the missing vehicle was also flashed on wireless police devices. Luckily, the cops didn&rsquo;t have to go very far. The jeep was found abandoned around 2 km away from his residence at Raja Badhe Chowk around 10 am. &ldquo;Prima facie it appears that the unidentified accused took the jeep for a ride and parked it at a corner when the vehicle ran dry,&rdquo; said the police officer. The Mahim police handed over the jeep to Kendre and a search is on for the culprits. &ldquo;We are checking if there are any CCTVs in the area for some footage of the accused,&rdquo; he added.
