As the local police is yet to trace the probable gang of thieves,
who are frequently targeting the href="https://www.dqweek.com/laptop-thefts-thrive-in-bareilly">IT
channel market in Bareilly,
another Dell-branded laptop has been reported stolen from the AP
Sales Corporation in the busy Butler Plaza market of the city. The
images of two women were captured on CCTV camera, who stole Dell style="font-weight: normal;">
Inspiron 14-inch laptop in the broad daylight of May
25. "This isn't a standalone case and we have filed a complaint
with the Bareilly range DIG, SN Srivastava who assured me of possible
help," said AK Singhal, Director of AP Sales Corporation.

The computer dealers of the area shutdown their shutters on May
26, due to police apathy and met senior officials. This is the third
case within the last couple of months in the market and the channel
partners and resellers are apparently unhappy with the police. "The
laptop has been valued at Rs 38,000 and was stolen at around 1 pm. We
have already circulated its service tag number-C4H2ZL1-to all the
association members and dealers in the adjoining areas and we have
also informed the Dell India," said Singhal.

The thefts that are giving sleepless nights to small-time
resellers. In Bareilly. "The entire computer fraternity of
Bareilly Computer Dealers Welfare Association (BCDWA) have kept their
shops closed to mark a protest for police inefficiency. The members
met the Bareilly range DIG and showed him the CCTV footage,"
said Manas Pant, Director, E-Plus Infotech and partner at M&M
Enterprises. According to him, nothing has been done by the police in
the previous theft cases and another case involving Dell's laptop has
been surfaced. "Such cases should be escalated to all the
associations, forums and dealers and the vendor company should also
come forward to track these stolen items," added Pant.
