Three members gang arrested from Nishtar Hospital, five mobile phones recovered

MULTAN, Nov 10 (APP): Nishtar Hospital’s security team has busted an organised gang involved in mobile phone thefts within the hospital premises, arresting three suspects, including a woman, and recovering five valuable mobile phones, including a doctor’s stolen phone.
According to hospital officials, the operation was launched following a report of a mobile phone theft from one of the hospital wards. A security team, led by Night Security Supervisor Muzammil Altaf, spotted a woman sitting suspiciously within the hospital premises.
When security personnel followed her, she reportedly panicked and threw a mobile phone on the ground. The team immediately apprehended her and recovered the phone.
During interrogation, the woman disclosed the involvement of her two accomplices, who were subsequently traced and arrested through swift action by the security personnel.
The security team recovered a total of five mobile phones from the possession of the suspects, including a mobile phone belonging to a doctor, which had allegedly been stolen from a hospital ward shortly before their arrest.
Chief Security Officer Nishtar Hospital Sarfraz Ahmed said the operation was conducted in line with clear and special instructions from the medical superintendent to eliminate thefts from the hospital and bring those involved to justice.
He said Night Security Supervisor Muzammil Altaf had deployed teams in plain clothes at different locations across the hospital to monitor suspicious activities, adding that the successful operation was the outcome of this professional security strategy.
Dr Abdul Qadir Khan appreciated the security team’s performance and directed that effective measures be continued to prevent theft and ensure a safe environment for everyone visiting or working at the hospital.
