The police fail to apprehend those behind the kidnapping for ransom of two foreign nationals and the looting of cryptocurrency worth Rs 14.7 million
Recently, the provincial metropolis was witness to a strange kind of heist, in which a German and a Swiss national were robbed of bitcoin, a digital currency. The police claimed to have nabbed two culprits, including Rana Irfan Mehmood, the prime accused, but according to sources the actual circumstances and factors leading to the incident are not yet known. Also, it is said that the criminals are still at large and not a penny has been recovered. All of which puts a huge question mark on the performance of the investigation wing of the Lahore police.
