PPE kit, mask fail to save electrician who committed jewellery heist in Delhi shop Agencies
New Delhi: A 25-year-old electrician has been arrested for allegedly stealing gold jewellery worth 20 crore. The electrician stole the jewellery from his employer’s showroom in southeast Delhi’s Kalkaji, police said Thursday. To hide his identity, the electrician wore a PPE kit and covered his face with a mask while conducting the crime. But that did not save him. The accused has been identified as Sheikh Nur Rahman, a resident of Hooghly district in West Bengal, police informed.
Rahman used to work in the showroom as an electrician. He told police that he was harassed by his colleagues who gave him orders like making tea, bringing water among others. To teach them a lesson, the tech-savvy electrician planned a heist at the showroom. He watched videos on YouTube to learn to operate various tools, a senior police officer said.
