In a bizarre incident in Ranchi, thieves broke into Bhola Misthan Bhandar and Restaurant on the night of May 17, engaging in a robbery that resembled a celebration. CCTV footage reviewed by the shop owner revealed that the culprits were not only stealing sweets but also indulging in them, sipping cold drinks, and dancing joyfully within the premises.
The footage shows the two thieves appearing completely at ease, enjoying their time as they carried out the theft. Pankaj Gupta, the shop owner, expressed his shock after viewing the recordings. “They danced their way through the theft. It was as if they were celebrating inside the restaurant. They ate sweets, drank cold drinks, and packed several items to take with them,” he stated.
Ashok Gupta, another owner of the establishment, highlighted that the damage inflicted by the thieves far exceeded the value of the sweets consumed. In addition to the stolen treats, the thieves made off with Rs 80,000 in cash and other valuables. “The loss we incurred is much greater than what they actually ate.
