Stolen Car in Chandigarh Fined 8 Times While Police Fails to Catch Thieves

Chandigarh : A bizarre case of vehicle theft has surfaced in Chandigarh, where a stolen car has been fined eight times while the police have yet to recover it. The car owner had reported the theft on January 15, yet even with CCTV footage showing the vehicle in different locations, authorities have been unable to apprehend the culprits. Meanwhile, traffic violations registered against the stolen car have raised serious questions about the efficiency of the police investigation.

According to the victim, he immediately filed a complaint after realizing his car was missing. However, despite multiple follow-ups, there has been no breakthrough in the case. The stolen vehicle has been captured on CCTV several times, yet law enforcement agencies have failed to track it down. In a shocking turn of events, the owner recently discovered that his missing car had been issued eight traffic challans, indicating that it has been actively used on city roads.

The situation has not only added to the owner’s frustration but also exposed loopholes in the city’s policing and surveillance system. If traffic cameras can detect violations, why can’t authorities trace the vehicle’s location and intercept it? The owner is now caught in a legal tangle, trying to prove that he is not responsible for the fines imposed after the theft.

The incident highlights the need for a more efficient vehicle tracking system and better coordination between traffic police and crime investigation teams. Despite repeated assurances from officials, cases like these raise concerns about law enforcement’s ability to curb vehicle theft and respond effectively to such complaints. The victim continues to demand swift action, hoping that his car will be recovered before more fines pile up.
