NEW DELHI - A Delhi Police sub-inspector lost his service revolver during the IPL match between Mumbai Indians and Delhi Daredevils at the Ferozeshah Kotla stadium Wednesday evening, a police source said Friday.
The incident came to light Wednesday night when sub-inspector Babulal Meena while coming out of the stadium discovered that his revolver was missing. He informed his senior officers immediately about the incident, the source added.
Meena is posted at Mehrauli and was at the stadium on security duty. A case has been registered and investigations in the matter are on, the source added.
Last year, live cartridges were found from the Ferozeshah Kotla stadium just hours before the start of a cricket match between India and Australia.
