Beware! Never keep your cell phone for charging near windows or the main door as in Pune, four minors have been detained by police for allegedly stealing mobile phones kept at such vulnerable places. And believe it or not, it was just the desire to party hard, wear branded clothes and watch movies in multiplexes that drove them to get involved in the crime. Nearly 47 smartphones worth R3 lakh have been recovered from them, which they had stolen in a span of three months.

After a couple of such incidents took place in five housing societies within the jurisdiction of Yerawada police station, the cops stepped up vigil and caught hold of the gang. Of the four members of the gang, two are school dropouts while the other two are school students.
