Two Arrested in Theft of Historic Cannon from Madhya Pradesh Fort
Two men, Aman Kumar Meena and Timmu Ram, were arrested in connection with the theft of a historic cannon from Narwar Fort in Madhya Pradesh. The 300- to 400-year-old cannon, made of Ashtadhatu, was stolen around July 15, with police tracing the suspects to villages in Rajasthan's Karauli district. Authorities suspect the theft may be linked to local disputes and are continuing a joint search operation to recover the cannon and identify others involved. The vehicle used in the theft has been seized, but the cannon remains missing.
