Mumbai: A 37-year-old man has been arrested for allegedly stealing a diamond earring valued at Rs 1 lakh, Rs 35,000 in cash and $500 from Bollywood actor PoonamDhillon’s house here, police said.
Sameer Ansari, the accused, had been hired to paint Dhillon’s flat in Khar area from December 28 to January 5, during which he took advantage of an unlocked cupboard to commit a theft, said an official. Ansari was arrested on Monday.
He spent Rs 9,000 for giving party to others who were part of the team that painted the flat, but the police managed to recover Rs 25,000 in cash, $500 and the diamond earring, said the official.
