Meanwhile, Pune also witnessed a daring daylight robbery in the Somwar Peth area, where thieves broke into a flat and made away with cash and jewellery worth ₹3.12 lakh. According to the police, the woman residing in the flat had locked her house and stepped out around 11.15 am on Tuesday for some work. Given that the house is located in a densely populated area with constant movement, she did not anticipate any possibility of theft during her absence.

However, when she returned home at around 2.45 pm, she discovered that the lock had been broken and the cupboard inside the house had been forced open. The burglars managed to steal gold jewellery and cash amounting to ₹3,12,330 within a span of just three and a half hours. The woman immediately approached the Samarth Police Station and lodged a complaint. A case has been registered against unknown persons, and the police have begun scanning CCTV footage from the surrounding areas to identify the culprits.
