MOBILE phone owners will be able to take action against thieves and help police recover stolen equipment thanks to a new database.
Thames Valley Police have joined other forces in developing a national mobile database for stolen or lost equipment, brought about by the National Mobile Phone Crime Unit.
The database offers a free service where people can register details of their mobile phones online.
If police recover mobile phones they can check the database and return the equipment to its owners.
