Tokyo Jewelry Store Burgled After Owner Fled Japan
A Sri Lankan jeweler who left the country in fear after the March 11th earthquake has returned to Tokyo to discover that a somebody had stolen his shop’s jewelry:
Before leaving the country, the man had apparently placed all of his valuable products in a safe. At some point during his one month absence, a thief broke into the store, opened the safe, and made off with the jewelry. Because the safe had been re-locked after all of the jewelry was stolen, it is suspected that the thief possessed a key.
The value of the stolen jewelry has been estimated at about 100 million yen (1.2 million dollars).
