Ahmedabad : A dramatic confrontation at a Ranip jewellery shop on Thursday afternoon has gone viral after CCTV footage captured the moment a woman’s robbery attempt spectacularly failed. She suddenly threw chilli powder at the shop owner, hoping to blind him and grab valuables. The powder missed its target.
The jeweller leapt over the counter and retaliated, slapping her over 15 times and striking her repeatedly before finally pushing her out of the shop. The entire episode, lasting just seconds, was caught on CCTV and quickly spread on social media.
The incident occurred at a jewellery store in the Ranip area of Ahmedabad. The woman, with her face partially covered by a dupatta, sat in front of the shopkeeper pretending to be a customer before suddenly throwing chilli powder at him in an alleged apparent bid to rob the shop.
