According to the police, the accused, Zubair Irfan Sayyed used to ask people and take their expensive bikes on trial rides and would never return. The Charkop police have solved three such cases and recovered two expensive bikes from him.
Fond of living a luxurious life, Sayyed always dreamt of wearing expensive clothes and riding expensive bikes. He even came to Mumbai from Hyderabad in May to fulfil this dream.
“In May, Sayyed absconded with a Charkop resident’s Trump bike,” said an officer from Charkop. The complainant was going on his bike when Sayyed stopped him and expressed his desire to buy the same bike. He even requested for a trial ride to which the complainant agreed. Sayyed did not return thereafter. The bike cost around Rs 7 lakh, the officer added.
