Reiki three times…

Lokesh is not being called a master thief just like that. FIRs are registered against him in many states. He targets only gold, silver and diamond showrooms. In the year 2019, he had stolen goods worth Rs 5 crore from Parakh Jewelers in Chhattisgarh. Lokesh did Reiki thrice to carry out Delhi’s biggest theft. According to the report of ‘Indian Express’, Lokesh first came to Delhi on September 9 to do Reiki. He kept hovering around the showroom till 12th September. After doing Reiki he went to Vrindavan. Then he came for the second time on 15 September to do Reiki. He came to Delhi on 21st September to do Reiki for the third and last time. This time he did not go back anywhere. In such a situation, it is believed that after the third Reiki, the thief had a strong plan with which he was going to make goods worth crores disappear.

And then goods worth crores went missing…

Master thief Lokesh Umrao Singh entered the jewelers showroom late on the night of 24th September (Sunday). The next day, on 25th September, he came out late in the evening with gold, silver and diamonds from the shop and caught a bus from Delhi to Madhya Pradesh at 9 pm. That means Lokesh spent 18 hours inside the showroom. In this time he had lost goods worth Rs 25 crore.

What did you take inside?

This question is arising in everyone’s mind that what did a thief keep doing inside the showroom for 18 hours? Lokesh is a clever thief. He has carried out many such small and big incidents. He knew that stealing could take a long time. He also chose the day very thoughtfully. Because in the area where this shop is located, there is a weekly closure on Monday. Because of this he got the whole day of Monday to commit theft. A police officer said that he had taken cashew nuts and almonds with him. When he felt hungry, he used to eat cashew nuts and almonds. It took him 18 hours to dig the tunnel and break all the lockers. After the theft he disappeared from Delhi. After investigation, the police caught him from Durg in Chhattisgarh. He was in a rented room, gold worth crores was lying on the floor. Surprisingly, there is a police post just a few meters away from his room.
