Inspector's daughter, hubby RPT hubby behind burglary

The college going daughter of an inspector and the person whom she married secretly were behind the burglary in his house at Ammapet here about two weeks back, in which gold jewellery worth more than Rs 15 lakh was stolen, police said.
Commissioner of Police A Amalraj said investigations led to the arrest of Manikandan, a college student and recovery of part of the jewellery.
He was produced before a local court today and remanded in 15 days judicial custody.
Manikandan told police they had got married in a registrar's office without informing their parents and hit upon the idea of stealing the jewellery to finance their wedded life.

The girl was still at large and police are on the look out for her, Amalraj said.
Inspector Kabilan, posted in Tiruchirappalli, found his house burgled when he returned to Salem that day. His family members were away in Chennai at that time.
Kabilan was attached to the city police and had been transferred to Tiruchirappalli only last month.
