In line with their zero tolerance policy against crime, the Pahargaon Police Station has successfully solved a theft case involving the donation box at Al-Hidaya Masjid in Kodiyaghat, leading to the arrest of the accused and the recovery of the stolen property.
On October 28, 2024, Mr. Abdul Karim, the Secretary of Al-Hidaya Masjid, reported the theft of a donation box containing cash to the police. Acting swiftly on the complaint, a team was assembled, including Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI) Semaiah, Head Constable (HC) Ravi Kumar Limbu, and Police Constable (PC) Rahul Kr. Maurya.
