Expressindia.com reports:
A FORTNIGHT after the daughter of Punjab DGP S S Virk’s relative eloped with a youth, the police tracked her down in Bangalore. The couple have been handed over to their parents.

Despite their efforts, the policemen could not trace the couple. Then, about three-four days back, the girl sent an e-mail to her maternal aunt in the USA asking for money.

The UT Police contacted various Internet operators and scanned the source of the email. After finding that the IP number was of Satyam, they procured the address of the cyber cafe from where she had sent the email.
