00:00viewers we are welcoming you back firstly to the segment this is crime scene that you're watching
00:05on India today and at the very top we'll take you to a story that's indeed left many shocked
00:12across the country this is from Tamil Nadu it's a certain store it's a jewelry store Tanishq that
00:19was inaugurated very recently and now has become the victim of a major jewelry heist well what
00:28happened here is that it was inaugurated on October 14th what happened here is that there was a
00:34robbery that took place just about a month from when it was inaugurated on October 14th and that
00:40robbery has now also triggered an entire political war of words with the AIA DMK slamming the Tamil Nadu
00:46government over law and order situation in the state the employees of Tanishq showroom were shocked
00:51to discover that jewelry displayed for sale had gone missing preliminary probe revealed that jewelry
00:57worth crores had been stolen from the showroom there's even CCTV footage revealing that a lone
01:04man dressed entirely in black and wearing a full face mask had entered the showroom and that was
01:11through an opening near a lift shaft where work was underway now AIA DMK's E Palanaswamy has come out
01:18to hit out of the Vijay government alleging that Tamil Nadu had become a state of robbers he cited
01:24multiple incidents of theft robbery in just the past few weeks and took a jibe at chief minister
01:31Vijay asking if chief minister's actions were only in front of the camera this is what we are learning
01:38so far about the entire incident as well as the politics that snowballed over it as well let me
01:43bring in my colleague Anaga Kesav who's been tracking this story Anaga we were discussing about the very
01:49details of this story earlier in the day as well of course there are mounting questions on security
01:55and the lapses in security in the showroom which was very recently inaugurated but there's also politics
02:01that started playing out on the same just take us through those details please
02:10that's right in fact it's very shocking how the thief was able to bypass so many levels of security and
02:16then pick up
02:16jewelry pieces that was on display in fact we first have the security watchmen that guards the showroom from outside
02:23and then we have CCTV cameras and all those CCTV cameras are connected in an integrated command center which is
02:31in Bangalore
02:32so how did the thief really bypass all these levels of security and then manage to enter the showroom
02:39in fact there are also fire alarms in place that would go off blaring the second they sense an unidentified
02:46person entering the showroom so multiple questions are being raised in this matter as to whether there was any
02:52involvement of somebody inside the showroom who has sort of joined hands with the thief who has managed to
02:59execute a heist of this nature police are probing in all angles what we do know as of now is
03:05that the loss is running
03:06into crores multiple kgs I think around 15 kgs is what the preliminary investigation suggests of course this
03:13number is going to go up none of these numbers have been made official through any press release but what
03:18we
03:19do know from police is only through internal preliminary inquiry that has happened they are still trying to
03:24fully understand how the thief really managed to do it and how many other people have joined hands with this
03:30thief in order to execute a heist of this nature so all of these angles are being probed by the
03:36Madurai police
03:38right Anaga thank you for putting things into perspective for us and we are going to keep a very close
03:42tab of
03:43how the probe indeed unfolds into this very case for now politics is what is only developing it seems over
03:51this
03:51case but we will also bring you all of the details on the other side as we continue to track
03:56the story
03:57but
