      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30333273/police-caught-stealing-electricity-in-punjabs-jehanian</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Amid the government’s crackdown against electricity theft to control electricity shortfall, the police in the Punjab province have been found stealing power to run one of its helpline offices.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In Multan’s Jehanian tehsil, several fans, air conditioners, and other appliances at the police’s Khidmatgar centre and the offices of a traffic license branch were found operating on stolen electricity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Footage obtained by &lt;em&gt;Aaj News&lt;/em&gt; shows the police got a direct connection from an electricity pole without wiring it through an electricity meter.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It was also revealed that the power meter of the police station was not working and did not show a reading of power consumption.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In a recent crackdown, the government found that 8 million units of electricity were being stolen across the country.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;At least 94 people have been arrested for alleged involvement in power theft.&lt;/p&gt;
