The Kurar police on Thursday said they have arrested a 31-year-old woman who committed a robbery at her own house nine months back. Cops, who were investigating the complaint filed by her husband, said she had planned to take the loot and elope with her ex-husband. The woman robbed her 43-year-old husband of cash and jewellery totalling Rs 8.5 lakh. The police cracked the case with the help of fingerprints.
The incident happened at the couple’s flat in Omkar SRA society in Malad East. She committed the robbery hours before leaving for Sangli to visit a relative with her second husband, on May 7, 2022, when the complainant went out to get the car cleaned. She broke the locker with a screwdriver, then left a broken lock on the inner door and closed the outer safety door, which has a latch and went down, said cops.
