Rf400,000 worth of goods stolen from Samuga store (Maldives)

Monday, 26 April 2004

MALE, April 26 (HNS) -- Samuga store on the ground floor of MTCC Building in Male was broken into early Sunday morning, with goods worth Rf400,000 stolen.

Proprietor Mohamed Lutfy said Sunday that in addition to the theft, the burglars had vandalized the store’s computer and cash drawer.

Among valuables stolen from the store, which mainly sells marine equipment, include navigation lights, search lights, radio equipment and pumps.

“The burglars entered by breaking open the lock of the main door,” Lutfy said.

He said that he had received information on Sunday that police had apprehended three youths who were selling marine equipment which he believed belonged to Samuga store.

These equipment will not be available from any other store in Male except from Samuga, Lutfy said.

The youths tried to sell the equipment to crews of boats anchored at Male harbor, according to Lutfy.

“The crew of one of the dhonies who were approached by these youths reported to police,” Lutfy said.

“However, police have not yet confirmed to me whether these youths were the burglars or whether they were selling stolen equipment from my store,” he said.
