In a daring robbery, three masked thieves targeted the residence of retired Justice Ramesh Garg in Indore’s upscale Vijay Nagar neighborhood. The criminals executed their plan with precision, looting jewelry and cash valued at over Rs 5 lakh. The entire heist, captured on CCTV, lasted just four minutes and ten seconds, occurring around 3:30 AM. The thieves broke the main gate’s lock and forced open an almirah to seize the valuables.
A video of the incident has surfaced on social media, showing one thief standing guard with an iron rod while another pilfered the cash and jewelry. The footage highlights the audacity of the criminals as they operated undetected, despite a security guard being present outside the premises. The home’s alarm system failed to alert Ritvik Garg, Justice Garg’s son, who was asleep during the robbery.
The incident has raised significant security concerns among residents of Vijay Nagar, a neighborhood known for its prominent inhabitants. The targeting of a retired justice’s home has intensified police efforts to apprehend the culprits swiftly. Authorities are under pressure to ensure such breaches do not recur, especially in areas housing influential figures.
Vijay Nagar police have registered a case and initiated an investigation into the robbery. They are meticulously reviewing CCTV footage from the vicinity to identify and capture the thieves. The community is hopeful for a quick resolution as law enforcement agencies work diligently to restore a sense of safety and security.
