Five arrested for stealing 30 sheep worth Rs 5 lakh in Haryana's Palwal

Palwal, Nov 9 (UNI) Police in Haryana's Palwal district have arrested five men for allegedly stealing 30 sheep worth around Rs 5 lakh from a shepherd who had temporarily sheltered his flock in a village enclosure, officials said on Monday.
All 30 stolen sheep have been recovered along with a tractor-trailer allegedly used to transport them, police said.
The arrests were made on November 8, nearly three weeks after the animals were stolen from an enclosure on Sewli Road in Nangal Jat village on the night of October 19.
Bahin police station SHO Inspector Ratanpal said the case was registered following a complaint from Mala Ram, a shepherd from Jalore district in Rajasthan, who had brought his flock to the area to graze.
According to the complaint, unidentified thieves entered the enclosure at night and stole 30 sheep, estimated at Rs 5 lakh.
Police registered a case under Section 303 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), which deals with theft, and launched an investigation.
Ratanpal said investigators identified five suspects on the basis of evidence collected during the inquiry and arrested them on November 8.
The accused were identified as Shakeel, son of Suleman; Sajid, son of Rajmal; Shakeel, son of Siddique; Jaikam, son of Kusali; and Farukh, son of Suleman. All five are residents of Bibipur village in Nuh district.
During questioning and subsequent recovery operations, police traced the stolen sheep to an enclosure near Jaikam's village.
A red Mahindra tractor and trailer allegedly used to transport the animals were recovered from Sajid, police said.
The investigation was conducted by a team from Bahin police station under the supervision of Palwal Superintendent of Police Deepti Garg.
Police said the five accused were being produced before a court for judicial remand after the necessary legal formalities were completed.
