Four arrested for stealing 'blue, black bags' from railway stations and trains

FOUR men were arrested for allegedly stealing only blue and black bags from railway premises and trains with heavy footfall. Police said the accused deliberately chose these colours to evade CCTV detection as such bags are common and less noticeable in crowded areas.

"Theft of five bags was reported on Thursday from the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Katra SF Express at New Delhi Railway Station, following which a case was registered. Police analysed CCTV footage and traced the suspected gang to a hotel in Paharganj," DCP (Railways) KPS Malhotra said.
