Armed thieves loot South Bopal jewellery at gunpoint in daylight robbery

Four armed robbers targeted a jeweller’s shop on Gymkhana Road in South Bopal. The incident occurred around 3.45 pm when the assailants stormed Kanakpura Jewellers, holding the shop owner Bharat Soni and staff members at gunpoint before fleeing with gold ornaments worth several lakhs of rupees.

CCTV footage from the jewellery store revealed that the robbers were well-prepared, with three entering the shop while the fourth kept watch outside. They wore helmets and covered their faces to avoid identification. Within a span of 7 to 8 minutes, the gang looted all the displayed jewellery and fled.

The robbers abandoned their getaway vehicle approximately one kilometre from the crime scene. Police have recovered a helmet from the spot, which is being examined with the help of sniffer dogs to trace their movements.

SP Om Prakash Jat of Ahmedabad Rural confirmed that teams have been formed to investigate the case. Preliminary findings suggest that the robbers parked their vehicle at a distance to evade detection. Additionally, mobile phones stolen during the heist are being tracked to identify the suspects.

This audacious act, carried out in broad daylight on a busy public road, has sparked concerns over the safety of residents and businesses in the rapidly developing South Bopal area. The incident has also raised questions about police preparedness and effectiveness in preventing such crimes.

“The robbers not only looted jewellery but also snatched mobile phones from the shop. We are working on multiple leads and are confident of nabbing the culprits soon,” said SP Jat.

Jewellery store owner Bharat Soni expressed his shock at the incident, saying, “We were terrified as they pointed guns at us and took away everything. Such an incident in broad daylight leaves us feeling insecure.”

Residents and business owners have urged the authorities to intensify patrolling and implement stricter security measures in the area. Meanwhile, the police are under pressure to solve the case swiftly and restore public confidence.
