Burglars replace ipod with tarantula egg
The seventh floor penthouse of The Embassy Boulevard apartment on Race Course Road of Malgudi was burgled when the owners Mr. and Mrs. Gandhi were celebrating a birthday party of their 7 year old son (Manmohan) in a nearby MacDonald outlet. Mr. Gandhi later told our correspondent “I never leave the house empty, but since advanced surveillance cameras were installed, I asked the house attendant to accompany us to the birthday bash”. Considering this a serious breach of security in a highly protected part of the city, the best officer of the state CID, Mr. Chidambaram was rushed to the spot. The self composed policeman in his articulate manner stressed on the fact whoever might the criminals be he would outsmart them. But what startled the smartest cop was the fact that the notorious criminal had only stolen an ipod without touching any other valuables and replacing them with tarantula eggs, which are not only more expensive but also unavailable in this country.
