A 26-year-old fashion designer has been arrested for stealing her 28-year-old friend's necklace worth Rs 6.5 lakh while they were attending a wedding ceremony of a mutual friend at a five-star hotel in Bandra West on May 25. The accused, identified as Meghna Punjabi, 26, was produced before the court but was granted bail as the stolen property was recovered from her.

According to the police, the accused tried hard to evade arrest by claiming that she too had lost her bracelet. However, she was found to be lying when cops checked CCTV footage and found that she had not been wearing any bracelet.
