HUBLI: Narayan Nadumani, Police Commissioner, Hubli-Dharwad, appealed to the mobile phone users to register International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number for its safety.
In a press release issued here on Tuesday, he said the police department usually found it hard to trace the stolen mobile set. Once the SIM card was removed there was no way to find out the same, he added.
He said the owners of mobile should press * # 06 # on keypad to get the IMEI number. That particular number would serve as a clue to trace the mobile in case if it was lost, he added.
He said with the help of mobile companies, stolen mobiles, which had been operational with another SIM card could be traced without any delay if owners had their IMEI number.
