GOALPARA: The Matia Police arrested two suspected car lifters on Saturday evening and seized a car from their possession. The car was supposed to be sold to customers.

According to the information, Pranjit Das of Goalpara Simlitola and Ramesh Rajbongshi of Guwahati were caught red-handed by Matia Police with a stolen Swift Dzire car bearing registration number AS01EX-5481 in a check near a petrol pump at Matia Bazar.

Police sources reported that the car lifter teams of the state have adopted a new strategy and sell cars while taking cars on hire from the registered owners.
