Mumbai:<\/strong> Mumbai Police have arrested two persons and detained a minor in connection with a high-value gold theft worth \u20b97.88<\/strong> crore from a jewellery store in Borivali West. The theft involved nearly 5 kilograms of gold ornaments<\/strong>, making it one of the major jewellery heists reported in the western suburbs in recent times.<\/p>\n\n

According to police officials, the incident took place during the intervening night of January 13<\/strong> and 14<\/strong> at My Gold Point, a jewellery store located in the IC Colony area. Investigations have revealed clear insider involvement<\/strong>, with at least two store employees allegedly executing the theft and fleeing with the gold after closing hours.<\/p>\n\n

The employees, who were entrusted with the keys of the shop, reportedly emptied the jewellery display counters <\/strong>and escaped with the ornaments. The crime came to light the next morning when the store owner discovered the missing stock and immediately alerted the police.<\/p>\n\n

A special team from MHB Colony Police Station<\/strong> was formed, which scanned multiple CCTV cameras from the store and surrounding areas to trace the suspects\u2019 movements. Based on technical evidence and surveillance inputs, police successfully arrested one employee and his accomplice,<\/strong> while a minor involved in the crime was detained and sent to an observation home<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

Senior officials confirmed that one kilogram of stolen gold has been recovered so far,<\/strong> while another employee remains absconding with approximately four kilograms of gold<\/strong>.
