Hyderabad: Owners of 35 mobile phones were all smiles as they collected their lost mobiles from the Hyderabad City Police on Saturday.

Hyderabad Police Commissioner Anjani Kumar handed over these mobiles, together worth Rs 5 lakh, to their owners on Saturday. In the year 2015, the city police launched a mobile app ‘Hawk Eye’ to facilitate the citizens lodge their complaints online, he said.
