British YouTuber Lord Miles has travelled 2,700 miles to get back his year-old stolen AirPods Pro, which were recovered by police in Pakistan’s Jhelum district, saying he was also treated to lunch.

 

By the end of May, in a post on X (formerly Twitter), Miles claimed that his AirPods were stolen from a Dubai hotel and “made their way to Pakistan”.

 

On Friday, he took to X, sharing a photo of himself receiving the AirPods from Jhelum District Police Officer (DPO) Tariq Aziz Sandhu, saying, “I have MY AirPods back after 1 year!”

 

He thanked DPO Sandhu for recovering the AirPods, calling the officer “a very cool man.” He added, “They also treated me to lunch at 2nd wife restaurant.”

 

The YouTuber said that most Pakistanis knew about his stolen AirPods, as he had posted earlier that he was going to receive his recovered property in Pakistan.

 

“I ask a random Pakistani on the street and they know about my stolen AirPods! I’ve been recognized several times by strangers,” he wrote.

 

In another tweet, he opined that stealing is a “gamble that never pays off in life, however, you know what does pay off? Actual gambling. With 1 spin I could buy 10 more AirPods, but I’m not as smart as the future millionaire reading this.”

 

When a user asked Miles in the comment section sarcastically, “Why does Pakistan have a better law enforcement system than America?” Miles responded, “Fr America or England would NEVER follow through. Pakistani police have proven they’re elite and actually care.”

 

When another asked him to clarify whether the Indian or Pakistani was arrested for stealing his AirPods, he explained, “The Pakistani was merely buying an item not knowing it was stolen. When the police raided his house, he provided proof showing he just thought he was buying refurbished AirPods… The Indian stole the item from my hotel room and sold the stolen item in Pakistan.”

 

He concluded that it took one and a half months of planning, 2,700 miles of travel, and a special operation by Pakistani police to get back his AirPods.
