Complainant Chhotelal Kantaprasad Gupta (53), a resident of Surendragarh, Mukta Square, near Agrawal Kirana Stores was left in a state of shock when his motorcycle Suzuki (MH 31 H 3853), Honda bike (MH 31 DD 4571), a Honda Pleasure (MH 31 CT 5181) and three bicycles kept in his waranda suddenly caught fire.

Before Chhotelal could do anything, his vehicles turned to ashes. He rushed to Gittikhadan Police Station and lodged a complaint.
