New Delhi, Feb 12 (IBNS): Three persons have been arrested in connection with the theft of Nobel laureate Kailash Satyarthi's Nobel prize citation from his south Delhi residence, reports said.

According to reports, the three have been held with the replica of the Nobel Prize as well as some jewellery items.

The theft was believed to have taken place between last Monday night and Tuesday morning.

It was discovered by the staff of the social activist.

Satyarthi, the founder of the Bachpan Bachao Andolan, which is dedicated to the fight against child labour, was awarded the Noble peace prize in 2014.

He is said to be away, participating in the World Summit of Nobel Peace Laureates in Latin America.

In a similar incident, the Nobel prize of Rabindranath Tagore, country's first Nobel laureate, was stolen from a Visva Bharati museum in  Shantiniketan in 2004.
