A 12-storey building in Khar West was targeted by a thief recently. A report in this paper outlined how this habitual offender, as the police described him, gained access to a couple of flats in the building through climbing the scaffolding.

A scaffolding was in place and the thief climbed with the help of the bamboo poles, entering at least three flats before he was caught. He took a couple of possessions like a mobile phone, a watch, a wallet, but he was caught by the police.
