Police in Lahore have arrested a five-member female gang accused of several thefts and armed robberies. The group targeted shops and markets throughout the city, focusing mainly on electronics and hardware stores.
According to police reports, the gang used a clever method. One woman distracted shopkeepers while the others stole goods from the shops. This strategy helped them carry out thefts without being noticed.
The gang was also involved in an armed robbery at a shop in Lahore’s Manawan area. Authorities believe the group may have committed similar crimes in other parts of Lahore.
Karachi police, involved in the investigation, said they are working to understand the full extent of the gang’s activities. They hope to uncover if the suspects are linked to other cases across the city.
The arrest is part of ongoing efforts by law enforcement in Lahore to improve security and reduce crime in commercial areas. Police continue to investigate and gather evidence against the accused women.
Residents and shop owners in Lahore welcomed the arrest, hoping it will bring relief to local markets that have faced growing threats from such gangs.
Authorities urge the public to remain vigilant and report suspicious activities to help prevent similar crimes in the future.
