The accused were in fact, spotted on the video recording of the surveillance camera of the shop, stealing some pieces of gold before they left.

Investigation reports reveal that the two entered the shop claiming they wanted to buy some jewellery and started to try on items. While the saleswoman was attending to them, they hid some of the pieces in their handbags and left the shop.
