Man Arrested After 30 Years for Theft Case
Imagine someone did something wrong a really, really long time ago, like 30 years!
The police knew who it was, but this person was very good at hiding.
Every time the police tried to find them in their village far away, they heard the police were coming and ran away.
This time, the person came back to Mumbai.
The police found out where they were staying by talking to people their son had recently called.
They were staying with family in a part of Mumbai called Ghatkopar.
So, after 30 years of hiding, the police finally caught them!
A 65-year-old man, Dwijendra Dubey, has been arrested by DB Marg police.
He was wanted in a theft case that occurred 30 years ago.
The accused had previously evaded arrest by getting prior information about police visits to his native place in Uttar Pradesh.
Dubey returned to Mumbai on October 30 and was staying at a relative's place in Ghatkopar.
Police tracked him down by obtaining his son's mobile number and analyzing recent calls.
