Hyderabad: The RGIA police arrested one Nissar Ahmed (30), a Police Transport Organisation (PTO) constable trainee, on charges of stealing at least 10 ‘FASTags’ belonging to the police vehicles from the office and lending them to private cab drivers for money.
Nissar Ahmed, who was earlier working as a home guard in the PTO, was subsequently selected as a constable and was currently under training for the same.
According to the police, Nissar Ahmed stole the fastags belonging to police vehicles and gave them to private cab drivers who are operating at the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA) to avoid the toll charges at the airport as well as the Outer Ring Road.
