After scrutinising footage from over 200 CCTV cameras from Dadar to Surat, the Pal police in Rajkot have rescued two minor boys who had fled from their homes. The boys, both aged 14, left notes asking their parents to not attempt to find them. Their distressed parents approached the police on March 4.

Officials said that after leaving from Pal, the boys travelled to Vapi and Surat. “We tracked them to Dadar Railway station and then found that they had returned to Surat. We took them into our custody near an eatery on March 7,” said Police Inspector KL Ghade, Pal police station.
