A few years ago, the stereo was stolen from another car she owned; the police found it, I identified it, but then they gave us one court date after another, and said we could only get the stereo back after all those procedures were completed. I realised it was just a wild goose chase, not worth the price of a stereo. There were dozens of stereos in gunny bags in the police room I was called to. Wonder how many owners actually got their music systems back.Girish Shahanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877402074547726173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7024210672199702325.post-41165136081337945852011-05-21T13:24:36.231+05:302011-05-21T13:24:36.231+05:30Wow, Subrata, that's an extraordinary account....Wow, Subrata, that's an extraordinary account. Somebody should put together all gtabombay's posts. And the story should've made the papers. As I said, the Versova police were less than co-operative in the matter, which ties in very we ll with the way the police behaved in gtabombay's case.Girish Shahanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877402074547726173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7024210672199702325.post-63569723992785043042011-05-21T12:30:10.778+05:302011-05-21T12:30:10.778+05:30Girish - your sister getting back her her car was ...Girish - your sister getting back her her car was miraculous in a country where cops and thieves team up to do the heist.<br /><br />Here is a thread from a car forum of a Pajero stolen from Matunga. It reads like a whodunnit (and being on a public forum, the thieves could also have been reading, if not contributing to the events. That would be a dark comedy though)<br />http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/street-experiences/96081-story-pajero-theft.html<br /><br />Sincerely<br />SubrataSubrata Majumdarhttp://subrataalpha.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
