CNN Central News & Networks / ITDC India ePress / ITDC News / Agencies:

In Raigarh, Chhattisgarh, thieves targeted two shops and carried out a major theft. The accused broke the locks of the shops and stole about 1.5 kg of silver and Rs 1.59 lakh in cash. Before committing the crime, the thieves also cut the connection to the CCTV cameras so that their movements could not be recorded.

According to information, the thieves reached the shops at night. They first disconnected the CCTV system and then broke the locks of both shops to enter. After collecting the silver and cash kept in the shops, the accused fled the spot.

In the morning, the shopkeepers found the locks broken and goods missing. The police were then informed. Given the scale of the theft, the shopkeepers have suffered a major financial loss. By cutting the CCTV connection, the thieves tried to hide their identity, which may pose a challenge in the investigation of the incident.

Police are investigating the case. Facts related to the accused involved in the theft and the method used in the crime are being ascertained.
