Few minutes
into the journey, the fine lady raised an alarm, claiming that someone had
stolen her mobile phone set (GSM). Both the bus driver and the bus conductor
inferred that the lady had possibly dropped the handset while struggling to get

But an
elderly commuter in the bus, Pa
Aiyeopemeji had another idea. He said “Waiting
till we get to the police station is unnecessary delay in catching the thief.
If both the thief and the GSM are in this bus, I volunteer the use of my mobile
