Ulhasnagar: Traffic Police Recover Scooter Stolen In 2024 After E-Challan System Reveals Chassis Number Mismatch

In Ulhasnagar, traffic police recovered a stolen Suzuki Access 125 scooter that had been reported missing in 2024 after an e-challan system detected a mismatch between the vehicle's chassis number and records stored in the system. The scooter, along with its rider, Rohit Dattatray Madhavi, was taken to the Central Police Station for further legal action and investigation.

During a routine traffic check in front of Hardasmal Hotel in Camp No. 1, Police Naik Rajaram Sangle and a traffic warden became suspicious and stopped the vehicle for verification. Upon using the e-challan machine, they discovered discrepancies between the vehicle and its photo in the system's previous records. Further examination revealed that the chassis number and e-challan database details did not match.

The police traced the scooter's original registration details, which confirmed it had been stolen in 2024. A theft case had already been registered at the Central Police Station. The rider and the scooter were then handed over to the police team handling the case for further inquiry. The incident illustrates how routine traffic checks and digital verification systems can help uncover potentially undetected vehicle-related offenses.

The e-challan system's stored photograph and vehicle records played a crucial role in raising suspicion and prompting the closer examination of the scooter's identity. Further investigation is anticipated to determine how the stolen scooter ended up in the rider's possession and if there are any additional irregularities involved.
