Chimpu Police Recover 10 Scooties, Probe Suspected Inter-State Two-Wheeler Theft Network

Itanagar, August 9, 2026: Chimpu Police have recovered 10 TVS NTORQ scooties in connection with suspected two-wheeler thefts in the Itanagar Capital Region (ICR), with the investigation pointing towards a possible inter-state vehicle theft network operating between Arunachal Pradesh and Assam.

The recovery comes in connection with Chimpu P.S. Case No. 63/2026 under Section 305(B) of the BNS, registered following the theft of a TVS Scooty bearing registration number AS22K2271 from the Zoo Road area of Itanagar.

Amid frequent reports of two-wheeler thefts in the ICR, Chimpu Police intensified night patrolling and naka checking. During one such operation, police apprehended a Child in Conflict with Law (CCWL) who was allegedly found in possession of a suspected stolen scooty.

During enquiry, the child reportedly disclosed involvement in the theft of several two-wheelers in the ICR, allegedly in association with other juveniles.

Based on the investigation, a police team led by Inspector N. Nishant, Officer-in-Charge of Chimpu Police Station, along with SI T. Potum, H/C J. Romin, Ct. Bui Nibe and Ct. Tai Leriak, under the supervision of SDPO Itanagar Shri Chera Saban, APPS, proceeded to Gohpur in Assam and recovered five scooties from different locations.

In a separate operation at Ganga Village, another police team led by SI Taba Tate seized four TVS NTORQ scooties for verification. The vehicles are suspected to be stolen, and police are examining their ownership details and possible links with reported theft cases.

So far, four persons, all CCWLs, have been apprehended. Preliminary investigation indicates that they were working as labourers in Itanagar and were allegedly involved in stealing two-wheelers from the ICR before disposing of them in Assam.

In accordance with legal provisions protecting children in conflict with law, their identities have not been disclosed.

Police have also served notices under Section 317(2) of the BNS, as applicable, to persons found in possession of the suspected stolen vehicles, including alleged receivers or purchasers. Their roles are being examined as part of the ongoing investigation.
