An unidentified gang stole 40 sovereigns of gold jewels and Rs.20,000 cash from a house at Thai Mookambikai Nagar near here on Sunday night.
The gang broke open the front door, entered into the house and stole cash and jewels kept in the cupboard while the house owner Ravichandran, commercial manager in Tangedco, and his wife had come to the city for purchase. When they returned home late at night, they found the cash and jewels missing.
Acting on a complaint, the Thadikombu police have registered a case and are investigating.
