According to Miyapur Assistant Commissioner of Police Y Srinivas Kumar, the accused selectively targeted premium motorcycles such as KTM and Royal Enfield models, stealing them and selling them to others.
Accused came to Hyderabad for jobs

Thefts planned due to financial strain

Following multiple complaints, police launched an investigation, arrested two of the accused initially and later secured the remaining two, who were earlier on the run.
