Malad robbery: Cops leave for UP, Bihar

24th Oct 2012

Teams from the Kurar police station have left for Uttar Pradesh and Bihar to look for the three helps who looted cash and valuables worth Rs 54.15 lakh from a Malad (E) flat after assaulting a housewife on Sunday.
The victim, Vandana Kapoor, is out of danger. The accused had even made off with the family's pet, a four-month-old dog called Myra.

"The three—Praveen, Santosh and Raju—had been employed with the Kapoors for not more than a month. The family members do not even know their antecedents nor do they have their pictures. The accused have left their cellphones behind. This indicates that the robbery had been planned even before the three took up the job," said the police. We suspect from their accent that they are north Indians.
The CCTV footage from Shuchi Heights, where the victim stays, isn't clear. "We have called experts to get clearer images," cops said. "We weren't keen on hiring Raju. One of our helps had quit as he did not want to work with Raju, who used to drink. We had warned Raju that this will not be tolerated," a family member said.
