The apprehended trio admitted to have been involved in the risky driving after consuming alcohol.

The vehicle was traced by a team of Laitumkhrah Police led by Officer in-Charge, from a garage at Laitkor Kyntonmon after a suo moto case was registered by the police with the Laitumkhrah police station.

All three accused along with the vehicle have been brought to the Laitumkhrah police station for further questioning and legal action.
