Mewat is notorious and filled with criminals. But they are giving the cops a headache for a different reason now. A new breed of technologically strong Mewati gang of thugs has robbed cops of their sleep. This gang operates from the interior villages of Mewat region.
The recent incidents indicate that the gang of Mewati thugs buy data from different agencies and local call centers. Then they use the phone numbers and target the victims.
"They usually call on the numbers randomly and pose as a worker in a mine somewhere in Rajasthan. And then lure the victim saying that they have found a brick of gold in the mines and want to sell it for cheap. As the victim agrees, the thugs call the victim to the isolated areas of Mewat region and then sell him a small piece of gold which is original. The victim comes back and checks the gold and founds it original and then calls them back and asks for the whole brick. But the second time the thugs use mobile jammers on the place of dealing and then sell the fake gold bricks to the victim," confirmed a police officer.
The gang usually calls the victims to Faridabad and then they continuously make him change course till he is made to reach an isolated area which is usually covered with bushes. The thugs deliberately try to be in areas where mobile signals are weak and useu00a0 stolen mobile phone jammers in the bushes so the victim can't call for help in case he realises the gold is fake.
"We have tried to catch the thugs and sent two undercover cops to find their whereabouts, but the thugs again misguided them and called them in the isolated areas. So for precaution we aborted the operation," the officer confirmed.
