LAHORE: A team of the Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL) on Monday unearthed gas theft by a Nimko (fried snacks) factory in the Kahna area.

“The pilfered gas was being used in a Nimko factory through a flexible nylon pipe, which was connected with the abandoned service line located across the LDA graveyard. A gas compressor was also installed to increase the gas pressure,” said a spokesman for the company.

He said an application for registration of a first information report (FIR) with the police station concerned had been submitted.
