THANE: Three persons were arrested for alleged involvement in the theft of parts of a mobile phone tower in Bhayander in Maharashtra’s Thane district, a police official said on Saturday.
The arrested accused comprise two staffers of a mobile phone service provider and a scrap dealer who bought stolen goods, said Central Crime Unit senior inspector Rahul Rakh.
A probe began into the theft of mobile phone tower parts after a complaint was received by Bhayander police on October 18 last year, and the three were held on a tip off from Hanuman Nagar on Thursday, he said.
Stolen items worth Rs 1.12 lakh have been seized, he added. (PTI)
