Bank Employee Arrested for Alleged Rs 66 Lakh Jewellery Theft Using Duplicate Key
A bank employee, Gaurav Rameshwar Sharma, was arrested for allegedly stealing gold, diamond-studded jewellery, and gold coins worth approximately Rs 66.25 lakh from a locker at a Goregaon branch in Mumbai. Sharma reportedly made a duplicate key to access the locker, which had a dual-key system requiring both the bank's master key and the customer's key. The theft was discovered in October 2024, and after an internal inquiry, police detained Sharma from his hometown for further investigation and recovery efforts.
