Talking about his incident, Madhukar Kakkar, the owner of Kakkar Jewellers said, "Both came to our shop to purchase the gold chain and they appeared to be husband and wife. They began checking gold chains. The salesman manning the counter showed them gold chains in different designs and prices. By diverting the salesman's attention, the woman stole a precious gold chain. Later in the evening, during the closing of the shop, the number of gold chains with the previous stock was matched wherein one chain was found missing. We then lodged a complaint with the police against unknown persons at the Hariparvat police station. Policemen were examining the CCTV footage to nab the culprits."
