Twelve stolen bikes. Gold chains. Silver ornaments. A mobile phone. And a police team that clearly meant business.
The Big Haul
Naharlagun Police have pulled off a significant breakthrough in their ongoing probe into a string of theft cases that had been rattling residents across Naharlagun, Banderdewa, Nirjuli and surrounding areas. The recovered items — 12 two-wheelers along with gold and silver ornaments and other suspected stolen articles — were seized following coordinated raids carried out across multiple locations in both Arunachal Pradesh and Assam. The scale of the operation tells you something: this wasn’t a small-time job they were dealing with.
Who Was Behind the Wheel of This Investigation
The investigation was spearheaded by Inspector K. Dev, Officer-in-Charge of Naharlagun Police Station, supported by a six-member team including Sub-Inspector V. Linggi, Head Constable T. Kochi, Constables T. Dawa and Sanu Raj T, and Lady Constable J. Sorang. The whole operation was supervised by SDPO Rishi Longdo. The case is registered as Naharlagun PS Case No. 84/2026 under Section 305(a) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. It’s the kind of teamwork that rarely makes headlines — but absolutely should.
What Exactly Did They Find?
The recovered two-wheelers are a telling mix of popular models — several TVS Ntorq scooters, an Aprilia SR 125, Yamaha FZ, Yamaha R15, Hero Xoom 125 ZX, Hero Maestro Edge ZX, Yamaha Ray ZR, Yamaha Cygnus Ray Z, and a few others. Some carried registration numbers like AR 01M 8202, AR 01W 3632, AS 12R 8608 and more, while several came in without plates — always a red flag. On top of the bikes, investigators recovered two silver chains, two gold chains, one gold ring, a battery, a pump, and a Realme mobile phone. Bit of everything, really.
SP Speaks, Investigation Continues
Superintendent of Police, ICR Naharlagun, Dr Nyelam Nega, personally praised the team’s efforts and made it clear — this isn’t over. The investigation is actively ongoing, and police have signalled that more recoveries are likely as they continue tracing the stolen property trail. Those are the kinds of words that should make anyone who was part of this theft network very nervous right now.
A Public Appeal Worth Paying Attention To
Police are urging residents to exercise caution when parking their vehicles, especially after dark. And if you or someone you know reported a two-wheeler stolen in recent months, this is the moment to act — bring your ownership documents to the SDPO or OC, Naharlagun Police Station, and you may just be getting your ride back.
A stolen bike is more than just lost property — it’s someone’s livelihood, their daily commute, their independence. The fact that Naharlagun Police tracked these vehicles across state lines says everything about the seriousness with which they’re treating this. Here’s hoping the justice is just as swift.
