The video has since gone viral, drawing a wave of reactions. “Same happened in my cousin’s marriage, person stole around 7-8L worth of ornaments,” a user wrote. “Smooth operator, seems like he’s done it several times before,” another user commented.

“This is the confidence which is required in the life,” a third user reacted.

The report stated that family members remained busy with the ceremony and photography, unaware of the theft. The disappearance of the bag came to light only after the photoshoot concluded and the bride discovered it was missing. A search at the venue yielded no results, leading the family to review the event recordings, the report added.

Nitin Karol, the groom’s brother, lodged a formal complaint with the police. Officials stated that the accused has been identified through the video evidence, and a search operation is currently in progress to locate and apprehend him.

The shocking episode has left both families shaken, casting a shadow over what was meant to be a joyful occasion. Investigators, however, remain optimistic that the clear visuals will assist in swiftly capturing the suspect.
