On Saturday night, Kaliabor Police in Assam apprehended three members of an active car hijacking gang operating on the national highway. Following complaints from local residents about vehicle seizures, a joint operation by Kaliabor subdivision police and Samguri police resulted in the arrest of the culprits at Missa village. The gang, identified as Papu Bora, Saiful Islam, and Mahmood Hussain, was captured with a stolen Tata Yodha vehicle (registration: AS 02 CC 7561) and over Rs 1 lakh in cash.
