High Speed Bikes in City (!).
Police Should Focus Before Major Banks (!).
Berhampur: Two snatching cases have been registered by the Berhampur police. In one of the incidents, under Baidyanathpur two pedestrians escaped after snatching cash Rs.4.5 lakhs from an old couple, while in the other, a bag was snatched from a man after snatched near Hotel Moti under BerhampurTown Police station.
Notably, during March one snatching case also registered at Bada Bazar Police station while a man of Bada Bazar area after drawing Cash 4 Lakhs from a Bank at Dharma Nagar miscreants snatched near Utkal Cinema Hall.
The snatching incidents have taken place in the city with the open challenged to police by the miscreants hiding all clues (!).
However,the city police after them and working in full sewing with some clues in hands about the incidents even 15 days after these have taken place.
To nab the miscreants Berhampur Police formed 2/3 special squad in different manner under the leadership of Superintendent of Police and the team deployed to many places, Kept under confidential by the Police district administratation.
Now, this is the high time and the Police should be more watchful before the bank and to keep close eyes on snatchers.
Who are those City Riders (?).
It came to notice from our reliable source 2/3 High speed bikes without number plate sometimes with other state number roaming in city by youths especially in Pick time (11 AM to 5 PM again 5PM to 8 PM).Further sources reveal, the bikes are moving nearby heavy transacted banks and unknown faces watching the movement of Bank Customers.
In this context, the city police should be focused and more vigilant to the niche points like top private banks such as,ICICI, HDFC,AXIX Banks already have a foot in the door as they are eligible to conduct Central and State government business.
Other than Govt accounts the private bankers have maximum good numbers of private customers from various sector like Builders, Private stockist, Medicine distributors, Real -Estate business, Petrol Pump owners and Nursing Homes accounts are with Private Banks and they have regular good amount of transactions (in Corers (?) only because of the private banks offers lucrative facilities, loans, instant Cash Credit limits other than Nationalised Banks. So this may be a Golden spoon opportunity to the miscreants (?).
The pity is the government’s approach has so far been two steps forward and one step back. Why they do so (?).Today this is a high time the district Collector to issue an advisory,(SoP), which was seen as a clerical staff doing all government transactions with banker without security guards (!).
