Three suspects have been arrested for robbing a German tourist in Lahore a few days ago, police sources told Express News on Tuesday. The suspects were found in possession of the stolen camera and mobile phone.
The suspects were apprehended in the Ghaziabad and Barki areas, according to sources.
The suspects had robbed the German tourist of his mobile phone and camera in the Northern Cantonment area last week.
It is noteworthy that a day earlier, the Punjab government had provided the robbed German tourist with Rs500,000 in aid.
Yesterday, Punjab Home Secretary Noorul Amin Mengal met with the German tourist, Florian Berg, and assured him that all tourists visiting Pakistan are regarded as honoured guests. "We are taking measures to ensure their security and safety," said Mengal.
