Caught: jewel thief with a woman's voice

3 robbers held with gold, diamonds stolen from trader's house. One of the thieves had mimicked woman's voice during robbery

This jewel thief had almost fooled his way to safety by acquiring a woman's voice during the robbery of a businessman's house. But he couldn't fool the cops and was arrested along with his accomplices on Tuesday.

On November 29, robbers targeted a businessman's house in Nazafgarh. After locking the two servants of the house inside a room, the assailants decamped with jewellery worth Rs 15 lakh and cash amounting to a few lakh.

The two servants, in their statement to the police said while they were locked in the room, they had heard the voice of a woman who was guiding the robbers to places inside the house where the jewellery was kept. The Delhi Police had handed over the strange case to its Crime Branch.
