Thieves dig 10-feet tunnel

A bizarre incident is coming to light from Uttar Pradesh’s Meerut where thieves robbed jewellery worth Rs 15 lakhs from a shop by digging a 10 ft foot tunnel through a drain. The incident happened in the jewellery shop located under the Nauchandi Police Station area.

The owner of the jewellery shop found something fishy when he arrived at the shop to open it for business the next morning. The owner noticed a tunnel running through a drain and into the shop. He immediately informed the police about the theft.

The Meerut Police reached the spot and stated that the thieves dismantled bricks and mud from the drain’s weak boundary to enter the shop. The thieves ran away with jewellery worth lakhs of rupees.

Soon after the news of theft spread into the state, the Meerut Bullion Traders Association members reached the showroom to protest the law and order situation in the city.

After the ruckus, two police officers arrived at the showroom. The traders refused to let the police officers inside, saying they needed a senior official’s presence to look into this robbery and several others that have supposedly occurred recently. The thieves are absconding.

Meerut Police have started a probe into the matter and action will be taken thereafter.

Last month too, a similar incident took place where a group of thieves dug a 15-foot-long tunnel from a drain and attempted to rob a jewellery store, but they could not fully open the vault. Later, they scrawled a message of apologies to the store owner before they fled.

Amritpal Singh

Khalistani leader Amritpal Singh who is on the run for the last 10 days is likely to surrender himself before the Punjab Police, said reports. The radical Sikh preacher who had been evading arrest for around two weeks has reportedly returned to Punjab.

The Punjab Police are on his tail but are yet to nab him. There are reports that the Waris Punjab De chief has put forth three demands before Punjab Police over the arrest.

Amritpal Singh is evading arrest since March 18 even after the state police launched a crackdown against him after his convoy was spotted in Jalandhar. Since then, he fled to several states, including Haryana, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh and Delhi, evading multiple checkpoints, and changing vehicles and hideouts several times.

As per the reports, Singh was also suspected to be in Nepal. India also encouraged Nepal’s authorities to be vigilant and prevent the radical preacher from fleeing, which led to his name being on a surveillance list.

Now, there are reports that the pro-Khalistan leader may surrender himself in the Golden Temple before Akal Takht. Policemen in plain clothes have also been deployed around Golden Temple.

Punjab Police have initiated a large search operation radical preacher in a Hoshiarpur village and nearby regions where Amritpal Singh and his associates may be reportedly hiding. The Marnaian village, where a thorough search was conducted late on Tuesday night after several suspects abandoned their car after a chase, saw a significant police presence in and around it.
