An unidentified man stole the purse belonging to a clerical staff of the Central Bureau of Investigation by breaking open the window of his car, which was parked outside the office on Bellary Road on January 26.
The owner of the purse Chaitra Raghunathan, who works as steno in the CBI office, had parked her car outside the office and has gone inside to attend the Republic Day programme.
He returned few hours later to find the front side of the window of the car open and the purse, which he had kept on the front seat, missing. The purse contained her ID card, credit and debit cards along with some money.
The Sanjay Nagar police have taken up a case and are investigating. There was no CCTV coverage outside the CBI office, however, we are trying to locate the thief, a senior police officer said.
