Three held for ‘stealing’ Eeco van silencers for precious metal dust in Vadodara

Meanwhile, a night patrol team of the Chhani police station nabbed one of the three accused — Anil Dabhi, a resident of Gorwa in Vadodara city while he was ferrying one stolen silencer in an auto rickshaw.

On questioning Dabhi, he told the police that he would sell the silencers to two men in Anand for Rs 5,000 each, after flicking them from Eeco cars parked across the city. “Dabhi’s confession led us to Siraj Shaikh, a resident of Chhani and Salim alias Mafat Vohra of Bhalej in Anand district,” said DCB PI V R Kher.
