The Railway Police wing of Jammu and Kashmir Police successfully traced the owner of an unclaimed bag that contained Rs 30,000 in cash and returned it to him.
The incident took place on Friday when Special Police Officer Umar, posted in the Railway Security Branch (RSB) section of Railway Police Kashmir, found an unattended bag in the last coach of a down train. Acting promptly, SPO Umar secured the bag and launched efforts to identify its rightful owner.
Following due procedure, potential claimants were contacted.
The efforts paid off when Iftikhar Naseem contacted the Railway Police to claim the bag.
“Upon verification of his identity and rightful ownership, the bag was formally handed over to him by the In-Charge RSB Section in the presence of the SHO Railway Police Station Srinagar ensuring transparency and adherence to protocol,” a railway police official said.
