BESUT: Police rounded up 21 suspects, including 17 secondary school students, for investigation into the theft of 14 Fixie bicycles from a bicycle shop in Alor Lintang near here last week.

District police chief Supt Kamaruddin Mohd Zakaria said the students were detained after police arrested a 23-year-old unemployed man following a report lodged by the bicycle shop owner.

He said the students, aged between 13 and 16, were detained when they were found in possession of the allegedly stolen bicycles.

“However, 11 of them had been released on police bail,” he added.

Kamaruddin said initial investigations found that the Fixie bicycles were sold to the students for RM150 and RM250 each. The actual price of the bicycle is between RM550 and RM660.
