Palamu police have cracked a bizarre case of four wheeler theft. Two Biharis named Bihari Yadav and Bihari Sharma of Bihar's Rohtas district had invented a new plan to steal tractor from here.

The two Yadav and Sharma  used to become first customer and used to reach any stone chip dealer or cement dealer in Hussainabad in Jharkhand's Palamu asking for either stone chip or cement for which they used to make payments. The two used to give postal address of some far off place in Hussainabad.

The unsuspecting dealer used to send the consignment by tractor which the two stole recently. About a month's back one such tractor was looted which was carrying stone chips for these two.

The two used to throw lavish lunch and liquor to the tractor driver who never missed this hospitality but once down with liquor the two used to throw the driver out of the seat of the tractor and then used to flee with the tractor. The consignment was off loaded.by them. Yadav is a master tractor driver and speeds away much faster than the normal driver of the tractor said Veyas Ram.

Stolen tractor of Jharkhand Palamu is sold in Bihar's Siwan district.

OC Hussainabad police station Veyas Ram confirming this modus operandi of Bihari Yadav and Bihari Sharma said the said stolen tractor has been recovered in Siwan  where it was lying abandoned. No one there claimed this tractor when Jharkhand police reached Siwan to bring this tractor back from there.

Yadav and Sharma again reached Hussainabad on Monday August 8 to lift four wheeler here  but this time Hussainabad police did not give the two any chance and the two were caught who in their confession to police admitted to have stolen the tractor which belonged to a well know trading company Patel Cement company in Hussainabad.
