In Jorhat, Assam, a 25-year-old man named Yash Dhanuka Agarwal has been apprehended for stealing ₹50 lakh in cash and gold from his family home, police announced. Agarwal, who was part of the family business, had been saving the money for business purposes and was aware of its value, according to his family members, quoted by Hindustan Times.
Police traced Agarwal's cellphone to Ahmedabad, leading to his eventual capture. His father journeyed to Ahmedabad, retrieved Agarwal, and turned him over to the authorities. On Tuesday, Agarwal was brought before a court and placed in judicial custody. A case was filed under multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), including criminal conspiracy, theft, and aiding in the concealment of stolen property.
Two of Agarwal's friends, Jitendra Somani and Rohit Prasad, who allegedly assisted him in planning the theft and helping to sell the gold, were also named in the First Information Report (FIR). However, Agarwal's girlfriend, who may be questioned in connection with the incident, has not yet been named as an accused. Police are now working to locate the other suspects and retrieve the stolen assets, with further investigations ongoing.
