A man was arrested for stealing money from an astrologer's house in Kanpur after he and associates posted an Instagram reel flaunting the stolen cash. The astrologer Tarun Sharma had reported the theft to police and CCTV footage caught the crime. Unable to trace them, police cracked the case after the thieves shot a video showing off the loot on a hotel bed and shared it online. By digitally tracking the video, police arrested one thief and recovered around ₹2 lakh cash and two phones from him. The brazen social media stunt by the thieves led to the robbery being solved as they gave away their identity through the Instagram reel flaunting the stolen money.
