KOTTAYAM: In a shocking incident, thieves broke the lock of a beverages outlet and stole 11 bottles of liquor. The theft took place at a beverages outlet operating in Paingana, Mundakayam. What is interesting is that the thieves did not steal even a single rupee out of the one lakh rupees that were kept in the outlet.

The incident came to light when the employees came to open the outlet on Friday morning. The police have received the CCTV footage of the thieves breaking the lock and entering the outlet. There is no indication in the footage that the thieves went to the area where the money was kept. Therefore, the police are assuming that the thieves entered the outlet only to steal alcohol.
