Unidentified burglars allegedly entered the house by cutting through the boundary fencing. After entering, they reportedly locked the room from outside, restricting movement of the occupants while they carried out the theft.

CCTV Cameras Misaligned During Theft

One of the key points in the case is the way the burglars handled security cameras. Preliminary findings suggest the accused:

Turned CCTV cameras upward to avoid capturing footage
Broke locks of cupboards and storage units
Moved inside the house without triggering alerts

This has led police to suspect that the burglary was well-planned and executed with prior knowledge of the house layout.

Gold, Cash and Jewellery Worth Lakhs Missing

The stolen items reportedly include:

₹1.91 lakh cash
Gold mangalsutra
Four gold rings
Silver ornaments including traditional jewellery pieces
Other household valuables

Interestingly, the thieves also took a crate of cold drinks before escaping the scene. The total loss is estimated at around ₹7–8 lakh.

Victim Found Room Locked from Outside

Rachna Gurjar reportedly realized something was wrong early morning when she found her room locked from outside. After getting out, she discovered that cupboards had been broken open and jewellery and cash were missing. She immediately informed the police.

Social Media Angle Under Scanner

Rachna Gurjar is a known social media content creator who often shares videos showcasing her lifestyle, including jewellery, festive looks, and home setups. Police have also clarified that all possible angles are being examined as part of the investigation.

Police Investigation in Full Swing

A police team has begun collecting CCTV footage from surrounding areas and is working on identifying the suspects. Authorities are currently:

Tracking possible escape routes
Checking local suspects with prior records
Reviewing similar theft patterns in the region

No arrests have been made yet, but officials say progress is being made in the case.

The incident has once again highlighted a growing trend of planned burglaries involving CCTV manipulation and precise timing. Residents are now urging better night surveillance and stricter policing in semi-rural areas like Shivpuri.
