The suspect, Sachin Sonakar, had worked at the complainant’s house for five months. He recently went on leave, but did not return, prompting suspicion. The complainant later discovered the valuables missing.
A police team traced Sonkar to Newada, his hometown, and arrested him. Valuables he had sold to a local jeweller were seized, along with a few diamonds he had buried in his backyard.
