Pondicherry, Sep 15 (UNI) Police today arrested two persons on the charge of selling second hand cars, using bogus RC books.

Talking to newspersons here, Superintendent of Police (North) Ramesh Kandan said the arrested were A Sathishkumar (mechanic) and Sakthivel (car broker).

He said Sundararajan of Rainbow Nagar had purchased a second hand car through Sathiskumar and Sakthivel. When he submitted the RC book to a bank to avail a loan on the vehicle, the bank authorities found that the RC book was that of TVS 50 moped, following which Sundararajan preferred a complaint with the police.

Police registered a case and arrested them.

Police also seized two more cars plying with the RC books of mopeds, Mr Kandan said adding that they would enquire with the RTO since, bogus RC books could not be prepared without the support of RTO staffs.
