[Greenage Update] TWO WHEELER STOLEN FROM BB PARKING

Hello all

Three months back, when a fellow Greenagain (Mr Rajesh Menon - JC X03) brought to our notice about his two wheeler being stolen from his parking lot, I never thought of such a shocking incident ever happening to me in a short time span, making me a similar victim !!

My Honda Activa was missing from my parking area from last Tuesday (Apr 19) . The bike was very much present on Sunday and Monday (Apr 17 and 18th) in our allocated parking space in UB parking of Birch and not in any common/public space .Soon after the realization of theft,I got the security supervisor- Ajay,  Lenin and Kiran - from facilities team, SSO - Muthu and a bunch of other security guards from Greenage to investigate on this.

Initially they demanded two days time to trace the bike elsewhere in the other parking lots of A, J , C, D, K and to screen the CCTV clips. With our strong foot forward, pointing the irresponsible security forces held responsible for this theft, I got an update yesterday evening from Lenin that the CCTV clip showed that the Garbage truck leaving Greenage was fully covered on the day when the bike was found missing unlike the usual days of garbage collection.

Same, as in the case of the Bike which was stolen from Juniper last November , my bike was also parked in the area with close proximity to the chute room (UB) near the lift.

This gives a strong clue that the Bike which was on central stand and handle locked (which was in an unused condition with battery being down and hard to start) , was lifted and kept inside the garbage truck and transported during the odd morning hours (2-3am) of garbage collection.

I was informed that the Garbage collection is supposed to happen in the presence of security guards wherein they unlock the chute room for garbage collection. But to my surprise ,I am yet to find a lock for the chute room !! Also had never found any security in UB or LB parking area.

Today morning after tight follow-ups, I was given the update that the garbage guys are ready to prove their innocence, willing themselves to be handled by the police and the only chance they suspect is that the bike to have got unlocked and pushed outside the Greenage complex. In-that case - where is the proof ? No CCTV clip showing the exit of Honda Activa by any !

If SS management is so supportive with respect to the Garbage vendor - then dont you think that it will be the Security guards who should be held responsible for having supported the theft crime and should be held liable for my loss????

To be precise, the contract with such lame security agency has to be cancelled in that case.

I strongly believe - mainly because of the unused condition of the vehicle which cannot be started and ridden and because of the coincidence of the earlier bike theft being in the parking area adjacent to the Garbage collection room, its is the Garbage vendor who should be held responsible for this.

As per the latest conversation with SS, they don't have any plan to get the police informed from their side, which unlikely should be an imperative decision to curb such kind of repetitive thefts happening inside Greenage.

I would urge each one of your support on this as many essential checks have been overlooked by SS team which matters a lot with respect to security of our assets.Now that, I don't have any hope of getting my vehicle back , SS being taking the matter so lightly.

But at the same time, I would like to escalate such a sensitive issue which we have been facing in such a reputed apartment complex in the city, which never compromises on the maintenance charges which includes such premium tight security services !!

Yes friends, today its a two wheeler, if this is the case: for the "N" number of trucks, vans and other large vehicles entering and exiting our community- we should be even scared of our small innocent kids who could be easily kidnapped inside those trucks !!

I would require your support to collectively raise this issue to the SS management so that they are forced to take stringent measures to tighten the security and lay down strong processes in place for each and every assets of fellow Greenagians !!!

Let us stand together for foolproof security measures to be implemented at Greenage so as to avoid such incidents in the future...

Thanks for your time and patience
