Bengaluru, Jan 20: Unidentified thieves decamped with 19 kg of gold biscuits of a passenger on board the Kurla Express, heading towards Bengaluru.

Mumbai-based businessman Rijoy, who works with a private gold company, was on his way to the city carrying gold biscuits in a suitcase. Around midnight when he was asleep with the bag next to him, his bag was stolen, he told the police.

The victim claims that theft took place near Hindupur station, but admitted that he realised his bag was missing only later.

As soon as he got down on Friday in Bengaluru, he lodged a complaint with the Cantonment Railway Police.

City police officials have gotten in touch with their counterparts in Mumbai and Hindupur in an effort to identify the thieves. A case of robbery has been registered with the Cantonment Railway Police, but will be transferred to Hindupur police station, said officials.
