Mauripur police in Karachi have arrested an 18-year-old girl who they claim stole motorcycles while disguised as a boy.

The accused is a resident of Lyari and reportedly performs the sport of boxing. The accused used to steal bikes along with her two partners — 14-year-old ‘Chhotoo’ and 20-year-old Basit.

While the girl is in the custody of women police, both her accomplices are on the run, reports said.

The suspect has denied the charges and said that she did not steal any motorcycle. She said she had been involved in the case because someone else gave her a stolen vehicle and she got caught with it.

While the police claimed that the three-member gang used to snatch or steal motorcycles of latest models, they are also searching for the dealers to whom the group sold the same.
