Incidents of theft and breaking in are not new during festivals. However, this time around a political party has been targeted, instead of usual places like a house or a shop. The locks were broken and an attempt of theft was reported at the regional office of Aam Aadmi Party in Ahmedabad on Monday.

According to the party statement, the thieves weren't after valuables, as the party fears the theft of important documents and data from the office.

A detailed complaint will be lodged soon after the party zeroes down on the exact items that have been stolen. Nonetheless, the police have begun a probe into the matter.

According to the party, an employee working in the office went to meet a relative after locking the office at noon, however, when he returned around 7 pm, he saw the lock of the office broken, and the police were called immediately.

The Aam Aadmi Party is investigating what items have been stolen from the office, especially documents and data.

The thief even reached the chamber of the state president Isudan Gadhvi. After the theft, the party said in a statement that the theft at a national party office exposed the law and order situation in Gujarat.
