A housekeeper employed at a residence at Ratnakar Bluemond in Anandnagar, Ahmedabad has been accused of stealing ₹2.5 lakh in cash from his employer's home. The accused, Dhanraj Rama Damor, allegedly committed the theft on March 30 before leaving for his native village.

As per the complaint filed by Nilesh Gupta, a resident of Ratnakar Bluemond, Damor had been working as a housekeeper and was assigned cleaning duties at the flat. On the day of the incident, he was seen cleaning the house until the afternoon, after which he informed his employer that he needed to visit his village. Gupta stated that Damor left around 3 pm.

The theft came to light on April 1 when Gupta discovered that ₹2.5 lakh, which had been kept in a wooden cupboard in his father's bedroom, was missing. A review of CCTV footage allegedly showed Damor entering the bedroom and later leaving with a plastic bag. Attempts to contact Damor were unsuccessful as his phone remained switched off.

The complaint was lodged at Anandnagar police station, and an investigation has been initiated under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). Authorities are working to trace the accused and recover the stolen money.

Police officials have urged residents to verify the credentials of domestic help before employment and to remain vigilant about the security of valuables in their homes. The investigation is ongoing.
