CISF nabs four for stealing mobiles from IGIA cargo area

Four employees of a ground handling firm operating at the Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) here have been arrested for allegedly stealing 20 mobile phones and their accessories from an incoming Hong Kong air cargo.
The incident was detected late last night at the IGIA when CISF officials detected suspicious activities of two ground handling staffers who were exiting the cargo terminal area at around 10:45 pm.
CISF spokesperson Hemendra Singh said over a dozen new phones of a domestic mobile phone maker and its accessories were found concealed "under the jackets" of these men and later on their sustained questioning two other people from the same firm were nabbed for their alleged involvement in the theft.

The Central Industrial Security Force team investigating the case later found that a carton containing these phones was allegedly kept hidden by these men at parking bay no 85 "with the intention to take out the cell phones from it as per their convenience."
"The four personnel of Cambata Aviation staff were later handed over to IGIA police," Singh said.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (IGIA) D K Gupta confirmed that four employees of the said company have been arrested under various provisions of law.

The investigators identified the four people as Nitin Yadav, R S Rawat, Sunil Yadav and Surendra Kumar.

The CISF said a total of 20 new mobiles and an equal number of accessories of these phones like battery, charger, USB data cable and headphones were recovered, from both the apprehended men and also found lying in the parking area after the package carton was tampered, during the operation.
They said a report of some mobile phone pieces missing from an incoming cargo flight from Hong Kong was also registered yesterday, few hours before the four men were held.
Police is now investigating the case further, they said.
The CISF, which guards the IGIA, has deployed a special scanner at the cargo and passenger terminals in order to check the menace of theft from baggages.
