As per the complaint of Rahul Singh, he along with his family had come to one of their relatives’ house in Dubagga. “We parked the vehicle outside the house on Thursday night and when we checked on Friday, it wasn’t there,” he told police.

A cop said SUV bearing registration number UP 32 JR 0150 had been stolen and a case registered against unidentified persons under section 379 (theft) of IPC.

On Thursday an SUV was lifted from Aliganj, which is still untraceable.

“In the last 30 days, 12 SUCH CASES have been registered in Lucknow,” said a police official, adding, “We need to chalk out a different strategy as SUV lifters have become aggressively active in first month of the New Year.”
