Khargone: An electricity distribution company employee was arrested on Thursday for stealing a mortgaged car using a duplicate key in Maheshwar.
Maheshwar police station in-charge Jagdish Goyal told TOI that an employee of MP Paschim Kshetra Vidyut Vitaran Company, Jitendra, was arrested along with the stolen car.
He said that a resident of Pardeshipura in Indore, Kishore Gehlod, had borrowed money from Golu Sharma of Indore. Unable to repay it, Kishore mortgaged his car to Golu who then began to rent it out. During this time, a Bhopal resident Ishwar rented this car to go to Maheshwar.
When Ishwar parked the car in a hotel in Maheshwar, Kishore got to know about it and gave the vehicle's duplicate key to his brother-in-law, Jitendra alias Jeet.
Jeet stole the car parked in front of the hotel and hid it in the grid of the electricity distribution company located in his hometown of Julwania in Barwani district.
Acting on Ishwar's complaint, the police recovered the car parked in Julwania with the help of CCTV cameras and arrested Jeet. After stealing the car with the help of his brother-in-law, Kishore had informed Golu Sharma that his car was stolen and that he should retrieve it.
