Bengaluru rains: Three villas robbed in flooded area

Bengaluru: Three villas in Bengaluru’s Rainbow Drive Layout in Halanayakanahalli, off Sarjapur Road, in southeast Bengaluru, were broken into in an odd burglary incident after the occupants left their homes due to incessant rains according to a report by The Times of India. Due to flooding and waterlogging, several residents of the area were compelled to seek shelter at hotels or the residences of relatives. Taking advantage of the situation, robbers entered the complex late on 09 September 2022 and fled after robbing three villas with gold, diamonds, and other valuables. The worth of the stolen goods, according to the police, is yet to be estimated. The alleged incident of robbing came to light on 10 September 2022 when the three owners returned to their residences for checking the flood situation.
