The complainant, Ravinder Singh, owner of Anand Electrics, says he had drawn the shutter at around 9pm on Sunday. The next morning, a neighbour alerted him about the break-in at the store. “The burglars bent the shutter to enter the store. I incurred a loss of around ₹1.25 lakh,” he said.

Assistant sub-inspector (ASI) Sukhwinder Singh, who is investigating the case, said there were no CCTVs (closed-circuit televisions) at the store.
