Car theft gang busted, seven held in Ajman
AJMAN — Ajman police have busted a gang of thieves involved in a series of car thefts and forgeries car registration documents.
Seven members of the gang, including Arab and Asian nationals, have been arrested, the police said.
“The gang lifted vehicles and sold them to others. They also used to sell car parts as scrap to companies. They used to lift cars that had been parked for a long time by using cranes,” said Brigadier Abdul Aziz Al Shamsi, director of Al Nuaimia police station.
Brig. Al Shamsi said that several complaints of car thefts had been received at the police station.
“The police formed a team comprising CID officers of Al Nuiamia police station. This team gathered all the information to track the gang members,” he explained.
“The CID officers used a trap to nab the gang members and caught them red-handed,” he added. The CID sent a decoy to the gang members who asked them to help him buy a used car.
“The gang then stole a car and sold it to the decoy, after which, the police raided their garage and arrested them while changing parts and making modifications in the stolen vehicles.”
The gang members have allegedly admitted to their crimes. The case has been referred to Ajman Public Prosecution.
