SP Numal Mahatta, addressing the media, revealed that he and his team have been diligently monitoring the situation in Silchar for some time. They observed a distinct pattern in the operations of these burglars, with suspicions that some are not local residents but rather individuals traveling to and from Silchar by train.

During the overnight operation, Mahatta’s team successfully recovered 12 stolen mobile phones and one stolen laptop. Emphasizing that these 17 individuals are habitual offenders, engaging in such acts regularly, he expressed optimism that his team would apprehend more culprits in the coming days.

The apprehension of these 17 individuals brings a sense of calm and relief to the people of Silchar. It underscores the police force’s efficacy and, at a time when hope was waning, the Cachar Police restored confidence and relaxation to many across the town. While this doesn’t entirely resolve the issue, it instills hope that such incidents may decline significantly following this operation.
