Overview
- The CCTV that surfaced July 2 shows masked intruders entering the Katara Hills home and methodically searching the first-floor bedroom on June 28, opening drawers and cupboards for several minutes.
- Police say a patrol intercepted suspects around 5 a.m., recovered a bag with silver jewellery and an old licensed revolver, and reported that other suspects escaped from the scene.
- Twisha Sharma’s family publicly questioned the timing and manner of the theft, saying the search looked targeted and could have been aimed at removing or destroying material tied to the ongoing death probe.
- The CBI is continuing forensic work and has asked the court for technical steps including the password to a seized laptop, permission to collect voice samples, and time for a second post-mortem; the agency opposed the accused recording a statement about the break-in.
- Investigators are focused on preserving the crime scene and the chain of custody for potential evidence and will be watching forensic results, whether digital devices are unlocked, and court rulings as the probe proceeds with the accused in custody until July 14.
