A young computer engineer was nabbed by the company authorities for data theft from the company computer and uploading it on another data sharing site for future use. He was nabbed by city cyber cell officials on Saturday.

According to cyber cell officials, they had received a complaint from Satellite police station officials where Anand Desai, an official of a Satellite-based BPO [Business Process Outsourcing], had mentioned that Ashok Jangad, a resident of Isanpur, had stolen database from the company.
