The National Highways & Motorway Police (NH&MP) has, in three separate incidents, seized two stolen vehicles, arrested two arms-carrying culprits and reunited a child with his parents.
The police were informed that a black XLI 2007 Corolla, No RIA-3114, had been stolen from the jurisdiction of Cantt Police Station. The Motorway Police alerted all of its patrolling officers and after only a few minutes, NH&MP officers Muhammad Khan Tooru and Ramzan spotted the car parked at Motorway (M-1) in the area of Lakori, unattended. The officers took the car into their custody and informed the owner.
In another incident, a resident of Khairpur, Muhammad Imran, informed the Motorway Police through the NH&MP Helpline (130) that his car, a gray Cultus No AQQ-690 had broken down and requested help. He also said that a red Cuore was chasing him suspiciously. This information was quickly passed to NH&MP officers Ameer Bux and Mazhar Din, who also called the officers of the next patrolling vehicle, Hakim Ali Brohi and Sanjeesh Kumar. The Coure car was successfully stopped and two culprits were arrested, by the names of Ali Raza and Manthar of Ferozpur.
The officers took the car into their custody and upon searching it found a 30 bore pistol and four live rounds. Interrogation revealed that the said Coure car was stolen from Shah Faisal colony in Karachi where an F.I.R. had been registered at the Shah Faisal colony police station. Later on, the Motorway Police handed over the arrested culprits along with the recovered vehicles in the presence of the vehicles owners to the concerned local police for further legal action.
In a third incident, a citizen informed the Motorway Police through the helpline that a 10 year-old child was standing alone on M-2 in the service area of Sukhayke in a worried condition. NH&MP officers Aslam Javed and Ahsan Azeem quickly arrived and took the child into their safe custody. The child told them his name was Adnan and said that his family had left him there enroute to Faisalabad from Lahore. He gave his father’s telephone number and the officers informed his father, Muhammad Shezad, who said the family had mistakenly left him in the service area and thought that he was sitting in the other car. The officers handed the boy over to Shezad who thanked the Motorway Police.
