NCR Gated Societies: Stolen Car Hideouts Prompt Police Crackdown

• Gated societies in NCR are increasingly used as hideaways for stolen vehicles, often parked for weeks or months in basements.
• Incidents like a suspicious Honda Jazz in Ghaziabad highlight the issue, with stolen cars later linked to robberies or chain-snatching.
• The problem is fueled by misuse of digital entry systems, outdated parking logs, and weak tenant verification in large societies.
• Police in Noida and Ghaziabad are intensifying efforts, ordering a crackdown on abandoned vehicles and forming special inspection teams.
• Authorities will check suspicious vehicles against crime records, seize those with unverifiable ownership, and issue public advisories.

Why It Matters: Your gated community might be a hideout for stolen cars, threatening safety.
