Rohtas: A strange incident of theft has come to light in Bihar. Here in Rohtas, after stealing an iron bridge weighing 500 tonnes, thieves have carried out another major incident. Thieves have now stolen the entire train engine by making a tunnel. According to the police, the bags seized from a scrap shop in Muzaffarpur were filled with engine parts of the train.
According to the police, a gang had stolen the entire diesel engine of a train that was brought for repair at Garhara yard in Barauni (Begusarai district) last week. The gang achieved this by stealing parts a few at a time. The first discovery was made when the police arrested 3 persons and on the basis of their information, they seized 13 gunny bags of engine parts from a scrap godown located at Prabhat Colony, Muzaffarpur. A senior police officer said that the shocking thing was that we found a tunnel near the yard through which thieves used to come and steal the engine parts and carry them away in gunny bags. Railway officials were completely unaware of this.
Let us tell you that recently in the Purnia district where thieves sold off an entire vintage meter gauge steam engine, which was stationed at the local railway station for public display. On further investigation, the police found that a railway engineer had sold the classic steam engine on the basis of a forged letter issued by the Divisional Mechanical Engineer of Samastipur Division. The police officer said that we have registered a case against unknown persons for stealing some parts of the iron bridge and the investigation is on.
