Bag containing gun, live cartridges found at Rewari station

An unclaimed bag containing a double barrel gun, 21 live cartridges and other articles triggered panic at the Rewari Railway Station in Haryana, police said today.

The bag was lying under an over-bridge, they said.

"We found a 12 bore double barrel gun, 21 live cartridges, some clothes, a tiffin and a shaving box inside the bag, which was lying under an over-bridge of platform numbers 6-7 of Rewari station yesterday," a Government Railway Police (GRP) official said.

He said a case has been registered and the police were investigating the matter.

"As of yet, we do not have any clue as to who could have left the bag there. It is possible that someone may have kept it there and later forgotten about it. However, nothing can be said for sure at the moment," the official added.
