Tohana: In a clever theft incident on the Jakhla-Chandigarh main road, two young men successfully stole ₹80,000 from the cash register of Ambha Marble by distracting the shopkeeper with a request for a plastic bag. The incident was captured on the shop’s CCTV camera, and local police have begun their investigation.

Details of the Incident:
According to the shopkeeper, Ashok Kumar, the two men arrived at his store under the pretext of purchasing a floor cleaner. They handed him ₹500 and asked for a plastic bag to carry their purchase. As Ashok prepared to give them their change, one of the thieves engaged him in conversation, while the other cleverly accessed the cash register and made off with ₹80,000. This well-planned distraction highlights the lengths to which thieves will go to execute their plans.
