Bengaluru: In an incident reported in the city recently, a techie was shocked to find on returning home from a wedding that miscreants had broken into his house situated and stolen valuables worth Rs 37.8 lakh.
The 54-year-old software engineer, Vishwanath SD, and his wife, residing in 4th Block of Kathriguppe in Banashankari 3rd Stage, had gone to Chikkamagaluru to attend a wedding on May 21.
When they returned on May 22, they found the door of the room on the first floor of their house open. They found that miscreants had opened not only the cupboard but also broken open the wardrobes, drawers and locker. Household articles and clothes were strewn on the floor of the room. On the third floor of the house, the terrace door was ajar.

Washington (PTI): US President Donald Trump on Friday said he had a "very good conversation" with his "friend" Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
He was referring to the talks the two leaders had on Tuesday.
"I had a very good talk with him, and he's a friend of mine from India, and he's doing great. We had a very good conversation," Trump told reporters here as he headed to Las Vegas to address a roundtable on tax cuts.
Trump had called Modi on Tuesday to discuss the bilateral relationship and share perspectives on the situation in West Asia, where the US and Israel have launched a war on Iran.
The US and Iran declared a two-week ceasefire on April 7. They engaged in peace talks with Washington, insisting that Tehran give up its pursuit of nuclear weapons and uranium enrichment.
The war with Iran has sent gas prices soaring as Tehran blocked the sea lanes in the Strait of Hormuz, the narrow gateway for a fifth of global oil supplies.
During the Trump-Modi phone call on Tuesday, the two leaders stressed the importance of keeping the Strait of Hormuz open and secure.
According to the US Ambassador to India Sergei Gor, the 40-minute conversation ended with Trump telling Modi, "we all love you".
Tuesday's phone call was the second between the two leaders since the US-Israel war with Iran began on February 28.
