Bengaluru: Indiranagar police arrested the man who stole a sump cover from Grammy-winning music director Ricky Kej's house recently, police officials said on Thursday.
The arrested is Shivakumar, 19, from Neelasandra. Police said the suspect was a scrap dealer and had sold the stolen item for Rs 700.
Last week, Kej had shared a post on X along with CCTV footage showing the suspect stealing the sump cover from his house in Bengaluru.
"I was robbed! Dear @zomato @zomatocare, looks like one of your drivers entered my home on Thursday and stole our sump-cover. This was at 6 o'clock in the evening.. Quite bold of them! This is probably not their first time. They came in just 15 min earlier for a recce, and then trespassed and committed the crime. You can see the CCTV footage from 2 angles. Also screenshots of his face, and the number plate. The number appears to be KA03HY8751? on a red Honda Activa. Possible for you or the @BlrCityPolice to provide assistance, as to who this person is? Also, people, be vigilant. This can happen to you too!" Kej had posted on X.
