In Hyderabad, a jewelry store fell victim to a robbery orchestrated by three masked assailants. This brazen daylight robbery was caught on CCTV cameras.
The incident unfolded as the robbers stormed into a jewelry shop in Hyderabad and plundered gold and silver ornaments at knifepoint. The entire robbery was captured on CCTV cameras, providing crucial evidence for the investigation.
According to the report by NDTV, on Wednesday, three perpetrators were witnessed looting a jewelry store.

The robbery took place around 1:30 PM, as per police sources, with the robbers executing the crime in a calculated manner.
The CCTV footage reveals a person wearing a cap and mask entering the store and examining some jewelry. He then brandishes a knife towards the shopkeeper, demanding the valuables. As soon as the shopkeeper displays the jewelry, another assailant, also wearing a cap and covering his face, rushes into the shop and attacks the shopkeeper. The CCTV footage clearly shows the assailant threatening the shopkeeper with a knife at the counter.
Moments later, another person wearing a helmet enters the shop and starts collecting jewelry into a bag. During the robbery, the shopkeeper is seen lying on the floor.

The injured shopkeeper has been admitted to the hospital, and the police are actively searching for the three suspects.
A senior police officer stated that the robbers meticulously executed the crime in a premeditated manner, ensuring minimal noise around the shop premises. Prakash Reddy, the Station House Officer at Chaderghat police station, assured, “We will apprehend the culprits soon.”
