CARGO THEFTS * India: Specially at night

* Punjab - Highway thefts make trucking difficult during night

-- The increasing number of highway thefts from trucks transporting goods from the city is making it difficult for transporters to move goods during the night, especially on the National Highway from Amritsar to Jalandhar. The transporters stated that 13 such incidents have occurred since January this year... Members of the All Transporters Association said they had apprised senior officials of the Police Department about the problem on various occasions... Sanjeev Kumar, of the Highway Transport Company whose truck faced such a incident on March 13 this year, said, “All the police stations including Jandiala, Rayya, Beas have been informed about the incidents. But they regret that they do not have enough diesel to continue patrolling on the hghway to ensure safety of truckers” ... When the transporters tell the traders whose goods they are transporting about the theft, they doubt the integrity of the transporters... The representatives of at least 15 transport companies, who gathered at the Jahajgarh market, stated that they have been the victim of such thefts more than once in the past two years. The transporters demanded from the Police Department to rein in such miscreants who are stealing their goods...
