As many as 16 people were arrested in Charsadda for electricity theft and not paying bills in a crackdown on Sunday. Charsadda XEN Haji Tahir Khan told journalists that Utmanzai Sub-divisional officer Abdur Razzaq launched an operation in the subdivision and its surrounding areas. “At least 16 people were held, out of which six were arrested for electricity theft, while 10 were held for not paying electricity bills,” said Khan.
