Nashik: A routine visit to a Nashik jewellery showroom turned into a brazen daylight heist when two men, posing as prospective buyers, made off with a tray full of gold rings. The incident unfolded at Arya Jewellers, located near the Jatra Hotel area, and was captured in full by the store’s CCTV cameras.
The suspects entered the shop with the apparent intention of purchasing rings. They asked the shopkeeper to display several designs and spent time examining the pieces placed across the glass counter, giving no immediate indication that anything was amiss.
The Split-Second Grab
As the shopkeeper focused on showing the jewellery, one of the men allegedly seized a tray containing the rings and bolted for the exit. His companion followed immediately, and both fled the store before staff could stop them, as reported by NDTV.
In a dramatic moment caught on camera, the shopkeeper vaulted over the counter and sprinted after the men. Other employees joined the chase, but the accused reached a four-wheeler parked outside and escaped.
What Was Taken
The stolen tray reportedly held around 12 gold rings, with a combined weight of approximately 2.5 tolas—about 25 grams.
The footage has since circulated widely on social media, drawing attention to the audacity of the theft and the shopkeeper’s swift reaction.
Police On The Trail
The Adgaon police have taken up the investigation and are scrutinising the CCTV recordings to establish the sequence of events and identify the suspects. Officers are also working with the vehicle’s registration number in an effort to trace the car used in the getaway.
A search operation is underway to locate and apprehend the two men, whose identities have not yet been established.
