Although the price of this urn is being estimated to be around Rs 1 crore, its religious significance for the Jain community is invaluable.
After the theft incident, there was deep anger in the Jain community. Many senior people of the society called it not just theft, but an insult to faith.
Police investigation revealed that the accused was attending the program as a devotee for several days wearing a dhoti and angvastra. He gradually won the trust of the organizers and the people involved in the ritual. Then taking advantage of the opportunity, he reached the stage directly, stole the Kalash and fled from there. With the help of CCTV footage, he was identified and the Crime Branch of Delhi Police caught him from Hapur.
The police had formed 10 different teams to solve this high-profile case.
Although the North District team had also found some important clues, the Crime Branch team showed agility and arrested the accused.
According to the police, 5-6 cases of theft are already registered against the accused Bhushan Verma. He is a habitual criminal, who does not hesitate to target religious events as well. Now through interrogation, efforts are being made to find out whether this incident was done alone or were other people involved in it?
Did anyone help in carrying out this incident? The matter is linked to the religious importance of the Kalash. This theft has deeply hurt the religious sentiments of the Jain community. This Kalash is not just an expensive metal vessel, but is considered a symbol of worship and religious faith. The people of the society had already demanded from the administration that the accused should be arrested as soon as possible and the Kalash should be brought back safely.
The arrest of Bhushan Verma in this case is a big success for the Delhi Police. However, all eyes are now on whether the stolen Kalash will be recovered safely? Will other people associated with the accused also be arrested? This entire incident has once again raised the question that the security of religious events needs to be made more robust and vigilant.
