‘Our life's savings stolen': North Kolkata family robbed of Rs 2 crore in night heist; while family asleep
KOLKATA: Burglars broke into a five-bedroom apartment in a building on Ultadanga Main Road close to Hudco crossing early on Monday and decamped with cash and jewellery worth Rs 2 crore. The family members, who were asleep during the break-in, told police they suspected insider involvement as the burglars were aware where the jewellery was kept and did not touch costly electronic items lying around. The apartment is owned by 62-year-old businessman Sushil Kumar Bajaj, whose son, Shubham, told police that the accused entered the first-floor apartment through a window in the prayer room after cutting and removing the iron grille. With the keys dangling in the almirah, the accused had no problem accessing the gold and diamond jewellery kept inside. Cops said a wedding had taken place at the house more than a year ago and the family members had not returned the jewellery to the bank locker. The break-in was discovered around 6.15 am when Shubham's mother noticed the window grille in the prayer room was missing. Besides Rs 2 lakh in cash, jewellery that were stolen included a gold set of necklace, earrings and bangles weighing 80-100 grams and valued at Rs 70 lakh. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Tukarkan Bitcoin dan Ethereum - Tanpa Dompet Diperlukan!

'These weren't just valuable items, they included family heirlooms,' said a family member. Shubham said he suspected an insider could be involved. 'They did not touch the electronic items that lay scattered around our flat. They knew where the almirah with the ornaments was and even ventured into the kitchen and ate some almonds,' he said. 'Our life's savings have been stolen. My father has serious heart ailments, and my mother is diabetic. We need to keep cash with us for sudden hospitalisations. Last month, too, my father spent days at a hospital in Alipore. I remain busy with my job. I married a few months ago and these were very much all we had as our savings,' he added. Police are examining footage from CCTV cameras in the neighbourhood and have deployed a forensic team to collect evidence from the crime scene, an investigating officer said. An FIR under BNS 305 (theft in a dwelling house) has been lodged at Ultadanga police station. The detective department is also helping with the probe. This incident has raised concerns about security in the Ultadanga area. Residents of neighbouring buildings expressed concern at the daring theft that took place despite the presence of family members in the house. Security has been tightened in the surrounding areas and cops have urged residents to enhance their security measures and install surveillance cameras.

Congress top brass assures state unit of no intervention in stampede probe
Days after the June 4 stampede near Chinnaswamy Stadium that claimed 11 lives, the Congress high command on Tuesday assured Karnataka's leadership that it will not intervene in the ongoing judicial investigation into the incident. Meanwhile the state Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has announced its decision to hold a series of protests from June 13 against the Congress-led state government. At a meeting in New Delhi, chief minister Siddaramaiah and deputy chief minister DK Shivakumar briefed the party's high command — including Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and senior leader Rahul Gandhi — on the measures taken by the state government in the wake of the tragedy that occurred during Royal Challengers Bengaluru's (RCB) IPL victory celebrations outside the Chinnaswamy Stadium. After the meeting, AICC general secretary KC Venugopal told reporters that the leadership was briefed about the stampede and the government's response. 'We also discussed the current political situation, including the tragic incident that happened in Bengaluru. CM and PCC president briefed the leadership about the incident and the action taken by the government afterwards. We are concerned about every single life. We didn't want to get involved already, a judicial probe has been ordered, but we want the probe to be completed in a fixed tenure,' he said. Venugopal also underscored the party's decision to refrain from interfering in the probe process. 'Certainly, we are very much concerned about every human life. We are the party that believes every life matters more. An unfortunate incident happened. The government of Karnataka has already ordered a judicial enquiry to find out what exactly occurred,' he said. 'During the course of the judicial enquiry, the party does not want to delve into the nitty-gritty of the issue. But, generally, the party has clearly viewed that there should be a clear-cut pro-people attitude on this as well,' he added. Siddaramaiah later confirmed that two issues were highlighted in the meeting: the caste census and the stampede incident. 'The steps taken by the government after the stampede — judicial inquiry, interrogation by a retired High Court judge, suspension of police and intelligence officers, etc. — were explained to the high command,' he said. Meanwhile, the state Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) announced a series of protests from June 13, starting with a rally at Freedom Park in Bengaluru, followed by a march to the chief minister's residence. Further demonstrations are planned in all assembly constituencies on June 16. 'About 15,000 to 20,000 party workers, people who are angry with the government and families of the deceased will take part in the protest,' said BJP state president BY Vijayendra. He alleged that the tragedy resulted from poor planning and a power struggle between Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar, who, according to him, were competing to gain political mileage from RCB's title win. 'The competition between CM and deputy CM led to two separate events. After the CM planned one at the Vidhana Soudha, Shivakumar used his influence to organise another at the stadium,' Vijayendra claimed. 'Shivakumar rushed to the airport as though he himself was a champion and welcomed them, we have seen the visuals,' he added. The BJP leader further accused the government of ignoring police warnings. He cited a letter from the deputy commissioner of police (Vidhana Soudha Security), which allegedly advised against the Vidhana Soudha event. 'The government did not take the letter seriously and permission was granted, as they were eager for publicity encashing from the RCB's victory,' he said.
