A daylight chain-snatching incident in Uttar Pradesh’s Jaunpur district has sparked concern after masked assailants were captured on surveillance cameras fleeing the scene within seconds of the crime. The incident, which unfolded in a busy local market area, has prompted a swift police investigation as residents express unease over public safety.

According to officials, the victim, a woman who runs a grocery shop, was seated at her store when two men arrived on a Pulsar motorcycle. Both suspects had their faces covered. Without warning, one of the riders snatched a gold chain from the woman’s neck, and the duo immediately sped away, leaving the victim shocked but otherwise unharmed.

The entire episode was recorded by a CCTV camera installed outside the shop. The footage clearly shows the motorcycle pulling up, the rapid execution of the snatching, and the suspects escaping within moments. Police have taken possession of the video and are using it as a key piece of evidence to identify and trace the offenders.

Local police confirmed that a case has been registered and efforts are underway to track down the suspects. Officers are reviewing CCTV footage from nearby locations and questioning people in the area to establish the escape route and identify the individuals involved. Authorities have assured that arrests will be made soon.
