A couple was travelling in a Scorpio on the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway but then they pulled over near Abhaneri Circle in Rajasthan’s Dausa district only to steal roadside plants.
Probably there were not aware that their act was being recorded on CCTV. The video is now being widely shared on social media.
The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has reported to the Bandikui police station that the incident occurred on July 29, around 5.36 pm, India Today reported.
The couple uprooted plants along the Greenfield Expressway and took them in their SUV.
A similar incident was reported in Gurugram earlier this year when a viral video showed two men purportedly stealing flower pots that were meant for the G20 event in Shankar Chowk.
The men can be seen on video taking the flower pots and placing them in the trunk of their luxurious car, while numerous other flower pots filled with in-bloom colourful flowers can be seen in the area, alongside a poster advertising the G20 summit.
