Indore (Madhya Pradesh): Unidentified persons stole cartons containing medicines worth lakhs of rupees from a moving truck in the Lasudia area, the police said on Sunday. The truck was headed to the city from Uttar Pradesh. The police believe that the thieves were on a bike and they stole the medicines after breaking open the lock of the moving truck.
