Madhapur DCP K.Shilpavalli said Arun Reddy would sneak into the valet parking of star hotels in Gachibowli and Madhapur areas either posing as the owner of luxury cars or a hotel valet parking staff.

“Posing as the owner, he gains trust of the valet parking staff and collects the vehicle key from them. In one instance, he posed as the hotel staff and took the car key for parking it and fled with it,” the DCP said.

Concealing the stolen cars, he would change their number plates and either sold or used them, she added.
