Swiggy Delivery Boy Arrested for Theft, Tied to Online Cricket Betting
Imagine a delivery guy named Vicky who works for Swiggy.
He got into trouble because he started stealing things.
He would go into people's houses early in the morning when they weren't paying attention and take their phones and laptops.
Why did he do it?
Because he was betting on cricket matches online and lost money.
The police caught him and found some of the stolen items.
He had been in trouble before, too, but he was out on bail at the time.
Now, he is in trouble again.
A 30-year-old Swiggy delivery boy, identified as Vikram Kumar (Vicky), was arrested by Delhi Police.
The arrest was in connection to thefts in Mandawali, Shakarpur, Laxmi Nagar, and surrounding areas.
Kumar allegedly broke into houses during early morning hours, exploiting the lack of security when residents were busy.
He stole mobile phones and laptops, which he sold to cover online IPL betting expenses.
Ten mobile phones and one laptop were recovered; he has over 16 prior cases and was out on bail.
