(MENAFN- Live Mint) Under 'Operation Bullet', the Delhi Police have recovered 10 high-end stolen motorcycles worth nearly ₹13 lakh, including six Royal Enfield Bullets.

A joint team from the Anti-Auto Theft Squad (AATS), the Anti-Burglary and Snatching Cell, and Police Station Swaroop Nagar carried out the operation.

The recovered vehicles include six Royal Enfield Bullet motorcycles, a Yamaha R15, a Bajaj Pulsar, and two Hero Honda Splendor bikes.
