Jaipur: A biker group went on a rampage in 5-6 colonies of the city’s Bhatta Basti area in Shastri Nagar and smashed glasses of more than 36 cars on Saturday night. On Sunday morning, when the glasses of cars were found damaged, the people reported the incident to the police. People reached the Kanwatia Circle and started sloganeering against the officials accusing them of negligence in police patrolling.

Police officers reached the spot and requested the people to calm down by assuring them that the people responsible for the damage will soon be arrested. The police have got footages from the CCTVs installed outside shops in the colonies. On the basis of these footages, the officials are trying to identify the miscreants. Footage has shown that the crooks were carrying stones in the bag and were throwing these on the mirrors of the cars while riding on their bikes.

ACP Jagmohan Sharma said that the bike riders broke the glasses using stones in the colonies of Subhash Nagar, Tata Nagar, Ramnagar, and sectors 3, 4, and 5 of Bhatta Basti in Shastri Nagar. Four teams of Bhatta Basti Shastrinagar police station have been formed. CCTV footages are being examined.

A victim of this incident, Lokesh Sharma, said that after getting up in the morning he saw that glasses of most of the cars in the colony were damaged and small stones were found inside the cars.
