Delhi Police today registered a case against two unidentified youth for allegedly stealing the Spanish national emblem from outside the embassy's front door.
An FIR was registered on the complaint of the officials from the Embassy of Spain. The case was registered under Sections 379/34 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) at Tughlaq Road Police Station here in New Delhi.
"The incident took place on Wednesday night when two youth stole the National Emblem of Spain made of metal, from the front door of the chancery in the embassy around 11 PM.
"They later returned again after probably one hour to steal another emblem from the other side of the gate but this time the guard heard the sound and they fled," said a police official.
The theft was recorded in the CCTV camera installed at the embassy's front door which has been handed over to the police.
The two youth seem to be vagabonds, we are trying to identify them and arrest them, the official said.
