But the next day, the locks were found broken and gold, silver, and diamond jewellery worth approximately Rs 1 crore, along with cash of about 12 lakh, had been stolen.

The investigation was carried out in a highly professional and meticulous manner. Teams immediately scanned CCTV footage from nearby and adjoining areas. More than 150 cameras were analysed to track the movements of suspects. The escape route of the accused was mapped over a stretch of nearly 10 kilometres, which provided crucial leads, police said.

On April 8, the police conducted a raid and arrested two accused, identified as Babloo alias Kalua and Rampal alias Ramkumar. During interrogation, they disclosed the involvement of their associate Vishal alias Vikku, who was subsequently arrested on April 10.

Further interrogation led to the identification of the receiver of stolen property, Ravi Soni (goldsmith), and another associate Pinky. Both were also arrested. At the instance of the accused, a substantial portion of the stolen property was recovered.

The stolen jewellery was disposed of through a local goldsmith or concealed with associates and family members to minimise chances of recovery.

Further investigation is in progress, police said.

According to the police, the accused used to conduct a recce of residential colonies during the daytime to identify locked houses. They would break locks at night, enter the premises, and steal cash and valuables before fleeing to pre-decided hideouts. (ANI)
