According to a report by News18, the accused had been associated with Raveena’s family since 2020 and would regularly visit the house to help care for Raveena’s 86-year-old mother, Veena Tandon. Police investigations claim that because the woman was close to the family, she had access to several parts of the house.
It is alleged that at the family’s Juhu residence, the accused broke open a locker and stole gold and diamond jewellery belonging to Veena Tandon. She is also accused of stealing two expensive watches owned by Raveena’s brother, film producer Rajiv Tandon.

They then found that the locker had been broken into. The complaint states that the missing valuables included gold bangles, necklaces, rings, earrings, a diamond-studded mangalsutra, and other diamond jewellery worth around ₹25 lakh.
Jewellery never recovered despite repeated assurances
When the family discovered the missing jewellery, they questioned the accused, but she initially denied the allegations. However, she was arrested after the police complaint was filed. It has also been reported that some of the stolen watches were recovered during the investigation.
