The police said that they had sent the CCTV footage and pictures of the suspects to the police stations and districts across the state.

They are now out on bail, it has been learnt.
As per the details, the couple entered the showroom with a seven-year-old child. While checking out a number of items, they stole two bangles and a ring.
The woman later went to the washroom and from there she went outside. A few minutes later, the man also left the showroom.
