Siliguri, 24th July: Two mobile phones belonging to Rajganj MLA and Trinamool Congress leader Khageswar Roy were allegedly stolen while he was returning from Kolkata in the first-class AC coach of the Darjeeling Mail.
The incident took place on 21st July during his return from the Martyrs’ Day event. According to the MLA, the theft occurred between Rampurhat and Pakur stations while he had gone to the washroom. Upon returning to his seat, he discovered that his iPhone and Samsung smartphone were missing.
