Assam Man Arrested for Stealing Rs 50 Lakh and Gold from Family HomePreviousNext

A 25-year-old man from Assam's Jorhat district, Yash Dhanuka Agarwal, was arrested for stealing Rs 50 lakh in cash and gold from his family locker on August 11 while his parents were away. The police traced his phone to Ahmedabad, where his father brought him back and handed him over to authorities. Agarwal reportedly spent much of the stolen money on his girlfriend, including gifts like an iPhone, and parties. Two friends are also named in the FIR for allegedly aiding the theft and selling stolen gold. Investigations continue to recover the valuables and determine others' involvement.
