In a case that seems straight out of a Bollywood script, Delhi Police has uncovered a disturbing family enterprise where a father systematically trained his own children to become chain-snatching experts. The duo, now being called Delhi's real-life 'Bunty-Babli' after the famous movie characters, had been terrorizing residents across multiple districts.
The Making of Criminal Prodigies
Investigations reveal that the father, identified as Rajendra, spent months coaching his son and daughter in the art of quick-grab robberies. The training included:
- Identifying vulnerable targets in crowded areas
- Perfecting escape routes through Delhi's labyrinthine streets
- Mastering the technique of swift chain removal
- Learning to evade police detection
A City-Wide Crime Spree
The siblings, aged in their early twenties, allegedly operated across prominent Delhi locations including Rohini, Paschim Vihar, and Punjabi Bagh. Their modus operandi involved targeting women wearing gold chains, often during evening hours when visibility was low.
Police sources confirm that the duo had perfected their timing and escape strategies to such an extent that they managed to execute multiple robberies within short timeframes, leaving victims stunned and law enforcement scrambling.
The Downfall
The crime spree came to an abrupt end when specialized police teams, analyzing CCTV footage from multiple crime scenes, noticed distinct patterns in the perpetrators' movements and methods. The breakthrough came when investigators identified the motorcycle used in the crimes, leading them directly to the family's residence.
During interrogation, the shocking revelation emerged about the father's active role in not just planning but actually training his children for criminal activities. The family had turned chain-snatching into a systematic business, with the father acting as both mentor and planner.
Broader Implications
This case has raised serious questions about family-involved crimes and the grooming of young individuals for illegal activities. Delhi Police officials express concern about the increasing sophistication of such family-operated criminal networks.
The investigation continues as police work to recover stolen jewelry and determine the full extent of the family's criminal operations. The case serves as a stark reminder of the evolving nature of urban crime and the importance of community vigilance.
