Jewelry and Son Disappear Together
The incident occurred on Saturday afternoon around 2 PM, when a woman visiting Rewa from Sidhi district for a family wedding noticed that her jewelry box was missing. Her suspicion intensified when she realized that her teenage son was also absent. Police immediately began searching for the boy after his mobile phone went offline.
By late Saturday night, the teen was located in Sidhi. Initially, he denied involvement, even when questioned by his mother. However, after sustained questioning by police, he eventually confessed to the theft.
Hidden at a Friend’s House
The boy admitted that he had stolen the jewelry to repay debts incurred through his addiction to online gaming. He had hidden the jewelry box at a friend’s house in Sidhi.
