If you ever end up losing valuables at Juhu beach, don't forget to look in the sand, they might just be buried there. Last week, the Santacruz police found out about this gritty modus operandi while they were looking for a Kolkata-based couple's stolen valuables. They have arrested four vendors for the crime.

The incident occurred on July 14, when Kolkata residents Arnab Dutta and Sneha Dhawan decided to venture into the sea around 12.30 am and kept their bags near an electricity pole behind Hotel Ramada Plaza. They were gone for 10 minutes and when they returned, the bag — containing Dutta's Apple laptop, mobile phone, Kindle and Rs 5,000 in cash — had disappeared. The items were collectively worth Rs 81,600.
