During the investigation, Manisha Kumari told police that some persons, claiming to be employees of GTAL, came a few months ago and said that the mobile tower is not functional and hence, they are removing it.
They had removed all the equipment, loaded it onto a pick-up van, and taken it away. The value of the equipment was estimated to be Rs 4.5 lakh.
This is the second time when a mobile tower was stolen in Bihar. Earlier, a mobile tower was stolen from the Sabji Bagh area of Patna in a similar fashion.
