The gold swap! Two women in Delhi pull off daring jewellery store heist

A video of two skilled female thieves has gone viral, showcasing their brazen daylight robbery in a crowded jewellery shop in Delhi's Laxmi Nagar. The CCTV footage reveals the duo's expertise as they effortlessly swap a gold ring with a fake one, without the shop staff noticing.

The video begins with one of the women carefully selecting a gold ring from the display case. She swiftly swaps it with a fake one in her hand and passes the original to her partner. Meanwhile, the shop staff remains oblivious to the theft, highlighting the thieves' professionalism.

The video has sparked a mix of reactions online, with some praising the thieves' skill and others expressing concern about the security lapse.

One user commented, "Their actions clearly suggest this isn’t the first time — they’ve done this before, and they know exactly what they’re doing." Another user joked, "Wow, nothing says 'I am a mastermind' like swapping a gold ring for a fake one in a shop full of cameras."

The incident has raised questions about the security measures in place at jewellery shops. With the smallest shops having CCTV cameras, one wonders how these thieves managed to pull off the heist without getting caught initially.
