Japanese businessman’s ₹6.5 lakh gold bracelet stolen from Hyatt Regency in Ahmedabad
A Japanese businessman staying at the Hyatt Regency in Usmanpura has lodged a police complaint regarding the theft of his valuable gold bracelet from his hotel room. The complaint was filed at Vadaj police station on March 10, after hotel authorities failed to locate the missing item despite an internal inquiry.
According to the FIR, the complainant, Hisrotsugu Itaro Kite Hara, has been residing at the Hyatt Regency, Room No. 910, since August 2023 for work purpose. On February 10, around 8 am, he placed his gold bracelet—purchased from Singapore for 9,816.50 Singapore Dollars (approximately ₹6.5 lakh)—on a desk above the temple inside his room. When he attempted to retrieve the bracelet on February 12, he discovered it was missing.
After a thorough search of his room yielded no results, Hara immediately informed the hotel management. The staff conducted an internal investigation, but failed to recover the bracelet. On February 16, he officially reported the loss to the hotel, and after a further 10 days of searching, the management informed him on February 26 that the bracelet could not be found. They advised him to approach the police for further action.
Due to work commitments, Hara was unable to file a police complaint immediately. However, on March 10, he, along with his associates Shabhai Nimeshbhai Gore and Prakashbhai Bharatbhai Bakdia, formally registered the case at Vadaj police station against an unknown thief.
The missing bracelet, described as a unique piece with half of it in gold and half in silver, has not yet been recovered. Police officials have begun their investigation and are examining CCTV footage from the hotel to track any suspicious activity.
Authorities have assured a thorough probe into the incident and urged hotel guests to take precautions with their valuables. Further developments in the case are awaited.
