Chain snatching is one big thing that is terrorizing the Hyderabadis now. Unlike earlier, these snatching cases are increasing day by day and worsening the conditions of the women, who are unable to step out of fear. 

More than the property on body, it is the injuries causing while snatching, is more threatening. The culprits are performing these attempts, travelling on bike and are mercilessly pulling off the chains, with the least concern of the women getting injured severely. There are several instances, where the women were dragged for few metres on the road and getting injured.

Incidents like these are worrying the Hyderabad police and are unable to plan proper safety measures. The reason because, if it is theft at a place, then the officials would have planned anything at that particular place, but as the chain snatching is mobile (travelling on bike), the police are unable to nab the culprits. And providing security to every woman in the city is again out of the question. Even this speculation is boosting more number of youths to practice this, treating it as a profession.

However, Telangana police in the recent times were successful in nabbing few culprits, by chasing them on the roads. This happened as the officials were at the incident and got alerted immediately. It might not be possible every time, as the intelligent snatchers would choose the non-police areas. So what can be the solution for this issue? Probably punishing the snatchers strictly, considering it as serious as a murder or rape case would do.
