A call centre employee, who escaped with an iPhone to make better quality TikTok videos, was arrested during a vehicle check at Vikas Marg, the police said on Sunday.

The accused, Jatin Nagar (20), a resident of Dadri, was arrested on Saturday evening.

DCP (East) Jasmeet Singh said that Jatin Chhabra, a resident of north Delhi’s Gujranwala Town, filed a complaint on June 12 alleging that his iPhone was stolen by a man, who posed as a potential buyer.

“The complainant had posted an advertisement regarding sale of his iPhone on an online site. He got a call from a potential buyer and he agreed to meet him near Preet Vihar traffic signal. After reaching the location, Nagar borrowed the phone from Mr. Chhabra, diverted his attention and sped away with the phone,” said Mr. Singh.
