The recently arrested man, Ata Mengal, who is accused of stealing government-owned cars in Karachi stated that the stealing the vehicles is made easier since they do not have trackers installed in them.
According to a video statement by Mengal corroborated with an investigative report on the matter, he stole government-owned vehicles in connivance with drivers working in public offices and then would sell them on half the price mainly in Khuzdar and other parts of Balochistan.
