Of the arrestees in Gongabu riot, three are regular thieves, police say

Transport operators say the Gongabu incident should be taken seriously by law enforcement authorities.

Among the 60 people arrested until Monday for vandalism and looting at the New Bus Park-based Lotse Mall and for torching police vans on February 13, three are people involved in frequent thefts who had frequently been nabbed earlier from various parts of Kathmandu Valley for crimes, police said.
