Mangaluru: Burglary at house of Bajpe family living in Muscat; thieves steal jewelry worth Rs 80 lak
Bajpe: A case of burglary was reported from Permude situated under the jurisdiction limits of Bajpe Police Station, with the thieves breaking into a house of a family currently residing in Muscat.
The burglars, who broke into the house on Monday night, have reportedly stolen about 1.1 kg gold jewelry worth approximately Rs 80 lakh. They are learned to have gained entry by sawing the iron bars that had been installed at the windows of one of the rooms. The thieves broke open a cupboard in the room and stole the jewelry kept inside.
The owner of the house, Praveen Pinto, a native of Permude, is learned to be living with his family in Muscat. On Wednesday morning, Pinto’s mother, who is also in Muscat, checked the footage of the CCTV camera installed outside the house. As she turned suspicious after watching the recordings, the family called Abdul Basheer, a taxi driver they knew, and asked him to check the situation near their house. The theft came to light when Basheer inspected the house.
Mangaluru City Police Commissioner Anupam Agrawal, ACP Shrikanth of Panambur Sub-division and Bajpe Police Inspector Sandeep visited the spot. The dog squad and the team from Forensic Sciences Laboratory were called to conduct an inspection.
Bajpe Police have registered a case based on Basheer’s complaint and further investigation is underway.

POCSO case: Bandi Sanjay asks son to appear before police, urges cooperation
Hyderabad (PTI): A day after the Telangana High Court refused to grant interim relief to Bandi Bageerath, who has been booked under a POCSO case, his father and Union Minister Bandi Sanjay Kumar on Saturday said he has asked his son to appear before the police and join the probe.
In a statement, Bandi Sanjay said he had asked his son to cooperate with the police soon after the complaint was registered last week.
However, Bageerath, who has been repeatedly maintaining that he has done no wrongdoing, presented evidence in his favour to his lawyers, the union minister said.
According to Bandi Sanjay, the lawyers opined that the case would be quashed and that Bageerath would get bail, which led to the delay.
