Mumbai: Thief Flees Empty-Handed After Owners Return Just In Time During Bandra Apartment Break-In

Mumbai: A thief broke into two flats at Bandra's Shangrila Apartment. However, the burglar had to flee emptyhanded as the owners of one of the flats returned just in the nick of time. On June 3, the accused broke into the building located at Rebollo Road. The burglar targeted the residences of the complainant, Tushar Mehta, 62, who lives on the first floor, a next-door flat and a house on the second floor.

While Mehta is the director of Indian Express Commercial Pvt Ltd, a media firm, the next-door flat belongs to a doctor who had gone to Vasai at the time of the incident. The owner of the second-floor residence has been in the United States for the past two months. Mehta said that when he and his wife returned from Pune, they saw that their flat as well as that of the doctor had been broken open. Moments later, they heard a noise and saw a man escaping from the doctor's house.
