IN a bizarre turn of events, a migrant worker's attempt to sell his vintage Yamaha RX 135 motorcycle ended in theft.

- TOBY ANTONY @Kochi

The ‘buyer’ simply rode away with the prized two-wheeler on the pretext of a test ride!

But police moved in swiftly and arrested the accused within two days at Kuruppampady, near Perumbavoor in Ernakulam district. Vijay Kumar, a native of Saran in Bihar, had brought the prized two-wheeler to Kerala, hoping to cash in on the high demand for Yamaha RX 135 models in the state's secondhand market.

He was employed with a private firm and lived in Vettekkattupady, close to Kuruppampady.
