New Delhi, Nov 6 (IANS) A man and a woman have been arrested for sneaking away with belongings of train passengers in air-conditioned coaches, police said Tuesday.
Mohammed Naushad, 31, and Moni Singh, 23, were nabbed Nov 1 from a coach in the Sampark Kranti Express at the New Delhi Railway Station, said Deputy Commissioner of Police S.B.S. Tyagi.
The two boarded trains at night and stole purses and other items from sleeping co-passengers, Tyagi said.
