“After meeting the delivery partner, the accused lured him into his trap by offering Rs 500 for each parcel and gave Rs 7000 to check the orders before receiving it. He secretly stole all the gold coins and returned the order, saying that he did not want to keep it.”  

Police said following the return of the order, the e-commerce company refunded that prepaid amount, and when the order was checked, the boxes were found empty.  

SI Sisode said, “On the complaint of an e-commerce company, a case was registered at ChunaBhatti police station, and the delivery executive was taken into custody while efforts are underway to nab the accused, who ordered the old coins. Further investigation is underway.”
