“The modus operandi of criminals brings suspicion on the Bawaria gangs. We have been working on all possible angles to crack the case,” said Bulandshahar senior superintendent of police (SSP) Vaibhav Krishan.

He said the Bawaria gangs adopt similar techniques to trap moving vehicles on roads.

In Friday’s incident, the accused allegedly threw axles at the car to stop it.

A similar incident occurred in the district’s Rabupura village last year. Later, the Bawaria gang was found involved in it.

The SSP advised people not to stop their cars on highways even on hearing sounds.
