        "According to police, an individual sold the stolen laptop around April 14 (2005) to a San Francisco man who posted it for sale on an Internet auction site about a week later. An unsuspecting South Carolina resident purchased the laptop off the Internet on April 22, police said.

The San Francisco man has been arrested and charged by the Alameda County District Attorney's Office with possession of stolen property, and the case against him is pending, police said. The man told police that he did not know the name of the woman who sold him the laptop, but he provided a description of her that matched that of a woman seen leaving the campus’s Graduate Division offices on March 11 with the laptop, according to campus police."<br /><br /><a href="http://platial.com/post/96645">Map this on Platial</a><br />

        From ze www.tribuneindia.com site:

 Two held for laptop thefts
Chandigarh, October 21
The police today claimed to have solved three cases of laptop thefts with the arrest of two city residents.

Giving details, Deputy Superintendent of Chandigarh Police (South), S.S. Randhawa said, acting on information, the police arrested 35-year-old Benson Massey of Sector 38 last night. He was trying to dispose of a stolen laptop when he was nabbed. The police recovered two stolen laptops from his possession. He added that the interrogation of Benson today led to the arrest of 25-year-old Romy, also a resident of Sector 38-D. One laptop was recovered from him.

The accused stole the laptops over a period of five months. Two of the laptops were stolen from the Sector 9-based branch of the ICICI bank in May and September, while the third one was stolen from the Sector 9-based showroom of Reliance company in September.

Three separate cases of thefts have been registered in the Sector 3 police station in this regard.

Elaborating on the modus operandi of the accused, the DSP said the accused would go to the offices, posing as trainees. Both these offices were conducting training-cum-refreshers courses for their employees from time to time. The accused would visit the office during the lunch hours when the course was suspended for a break, and take away an unattended laptop.

Giving profiles of the accused, the DSP said both accused studied up to matriculation and were unemployed. Benson Massey is married and has five children, while Romy married recently.<br /><br /><a href="http://platial.com/post/96311">Map this on Platial</a><br />
