A similar jewellery heist was reported from Delhi’s Janpura area a day before. Robbers fled with loot at least worth Rs. 20 crores. Both incidents are being investigated.

The robbers came through the building’s terrace and made their way to the strongroom on the ground floor, NDTV reported citing officials. The trio then drilled a hole through the vault to access the gold.
