A suspected Nigerian serial burglary offender has been arrested by Delhi Police in connection with at least five house theft cases and fleeing with electronic items like mobiles and laptops.
Muhammed Auwal Aliyu, 32-year-old, who claimed to be an MBA student, was arrested from Govindpuri on Sunday, 8 November.
During interrogation, Auwal disclosed that he came to India in 2015 on a student visa, and took admission in a private institute in Delhi to pursue a BBA. He claimed that he completed it in 2018 and then took admission to an institute in Noida to pursue an MBA.
Initially, he stayed in the South Extension area and later on, shifted to Sarita Vihar. Since the lockdown, he left that accommodation and was living like a vagabond.
“He further disclosed that he had been arrested earlier in theft cases of Greater Kailash, Malviya Nagar, Safdarjung Enclave, and Sarita Vihar. In all cases of thefts committed by him, he had stolen electronic items like laptops, hard disks, and mobile phones. But every time after getting bail, he indulged in similar activities,” DCP, South East Delhi, R.P. Meena said.
Auwal failed to show any document related to his stay in India so he has also been booked under the provisions of the Foreigners Act, he added.
