Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): A mobile snatching gang appears to be active in the state capital as three incidents were reported on Monday late night. The police have registered the case.
One of the victims was district BJP general secretary (Backward Class Morcha) Manoj Vishwakarma, who lost his high-end smart phone in Piplani on Monday evening. He was talking on his phone outside a clinic after bringing his wife for treatment when two bike-borne miscreants suddenly snatched it and fled.
