DIAMONDS WORTH N62MILLION DEVELOP WINGS!

A diamond wholesaler visiting Florida reported the theft of $400,000 (N62,840,000) worth of loose gems in what could amount to a well-orchestrated crime or the case of an ordinary burglar who got incredibly lucky, police said on Wednesday.

Jain Rajesh, 47, of New Jersey told police he left the diamonds in a red bag in his Orlando rental car for 13 minutes on Monday evening outside a buffet restaurant and the bag and diamonds were gone when he returned.

“They took the whole bag. That’s why at this point we don’t know whether he was targeted or was it a random vehicle burglary?” Orlando Police Sergeant Jim Young told Reuters. He added that investigators were looking into all possible angles in the case.
