Residents of The Crescent Apartment in Noida returned to a shock recently when they discovered their locked flats had been burgled in their absence. Preliminary investigations indicate that thieves made off with gold biscuits, silver items, and a substantial amount of cash from the two targeted residences, with losses estimated at Rs 2 crore.
One of the affected families had travelled to Panipat at the time of the incident, while the owner of the second flat was reportedly abroad in the United States. Both residents discovered the break-ins upon their return, prompting them to file complaints with local authorities.
The burglaries have raised concerns about security measures at the residential complex. Police have launched an investigation into the matter, with authorities examining possible points of entry and studying CCTV footage to identify the perpetrators. The investigation is ongoing, and authorities are working to recover the stolen items and apprehend those responsible for the thefts.
Institutional security at apartment complexes in the National Capital Region has come under scrutiny in recent months following a series of similar incidents targeting high-value residences.
