The case
Chief Booking Officer of LTT, Sunil Teltumbde, had filed an FIR against unknown persons. According to his statement to the police, early on Monday, booking clerk Zamman Meena informed him about the theft. Teltumbde later found the accused may have used a duplicate key to steal the cash, as there was no sign of force applied to break the locker. The locker room is one of the safest and secure places at LTT.
The stolen money was the amount collected on September 21. The police had registered an offence against unknown accused under sections 454 (lurking house trespass), 457 (lurking house trespass or house-breaking by night) and 380 (theft) of IPC.
Staff on shift
Six employees — Sajit Nair, Ratish Jha, Harishchandra, Meena, Pankaj Singh and cashier Taharabadkar — who were on the second shift, had continued on the third one as well, on the day of the theft. A police officer had said that the locker is in the ticket booking office and nobody is allowed in the area without the cashier's permission.
