One technique that is sometimes used to steal bikes is to lock a bike to another one. The miscreant comes along later at a quieter time of day, cuts through the other lock and takes both bikes away. This is called 'over-locking'.
I don't think this has happened in this case, but all the bikes in this photo are locked with useless weak locks anyway.
