The commander met the victim, Mr. Harry Orton and he was requested to make a list of missing items. Then, the victim immediately prepared a list of stolen items: cash money as 3,000$, gold and silver jewels worth 1.5 million and handed it over the team commander and showed him his shop’s CC camera and police took it for investigation.
At 1145 hours, investigation team saw the video about burglary. It showed that, two thieves burgled in the evening. The burglars were wearing red T-shirts and blue jeans and were covering their faces with red handkerchiefs at the time of burglary. The camera also showed one of them was lame who was just carrying a black bag with a loop at the top of the bag. The other was seen opening the shelves with the help of rod which was about one meter long. After seven minutes, they escaped through the back door leaving the shelves open. The incident happened between 2300 to 2345 hrs. The Duty Officer of the Sudan Civil Station#4, Mark Hendry, with ID No.039 radioed to all the police stations regarding the case.
At 1205 hours, after seeing the video, a special police team called Quicker Team#2 was about to leave the premises in search of the suspects as shown in the video. At the same time, the commander, Mr. Justin, received a radio-message from another local police station called Sudan Security Police Station#5, located at grid reference LT 102, five kilometers away, that the man who had one leg short was arrested during patrolling. During his arrest he was wearing the same clothes and he brought to the Sudan Civil Police station#4. During interrogation, he confessed to robbing the jewel shop with his friend. He also stated that it was not his plan; he was just helping his friend, otherwise he would be beaten. He described his friend as muscular built with shaved hair and V-shaped bald, and had a hole on his left ear. One of the suspects was recognized by the victim. He had visited his shop twice a week before. He had taken a look at some jewels but had left without buying any. Victim didn’t know his name or address, but he said that he could identify him if he saw him. Both robbers were around 26 years old, 170 centimeters tall and wore T-shirt and jeans. One of them had a Cobra Tattoo on his right arm and he hobbled while walking, like his left leg was shorter.
Mr. Justin and Asim Tanveer formed a special force called ‘Straight Operation’ of nine police officers including two investigation officers and they proceeded to get around the city in search of the main suspect. The police officer of local police station had checked the details of the suspect and found that his real name was Mazrin; there were some cases registered against him. Among them, two were about rape, four kidnapping school children and three were theft. The Operation Team’ along with two sniffer dogs was mobilized to the suspicious places and arrested a man from pub located at Heart Street-14 without any further incidents. But, from inquiries, it was revealed that the arrested man was the brother of the main suspect. They were alike because they were twins. He had got good reputation in his area. But no more positive result found. Then, Mr. Harry Orton went to the UN Police Station to report the same case.
