An iPhone was reported stolen from a flat in Dehradun’s Clement Town area, after which the victim’s sister said a suspected thief allegedly contacted her and demanded the phone’s password. The family has questioned the police response, saying CCTV footage and message screenshots were provided but the device and suspect have not been traced.
Phone reported missing from Clement Town flat
The incident reportedly occurred on 12 September at Sunshine Enclave, where the phone was being used at around 6:30 AM AM in flat number 35. It was found missing at approximately 8:45 AM AM. A review of the building’s CCTV footage allegedly showed 2 people approaching the room, whose door was open at the time.
The details were subsequently shared with police as part of the complaint. The available account does not include a police statement confirming whether a case was registered, whether anyone has been identified or what investigative steps were taken.
Sister says suspected thief sent password requests
The victim’s sister, Kaushiki, said the person believed to be behind the theft began sending her messages after the phone disappeared. According to her account, the messages sought the password for the stolen iPhone.
Kaushiki said she provided police with screenshots of the messages, CCTV material and other information connected with the suspected person. She later raised the matter through a social-media video, asking why immediate action had not followed despite the available leads.
She also said that when she reached the police station at about 10:00 PM after receiving a password-related message, she was asked to return in the morning. That account is an allegation made by Kaushiki and has not been independently confirmed in the available material.
Claims of other thefts near university campuses
Kaushiki further claimed that CCTV footage linked to the same suspect had emerged in connection with other theft reports around DIT University and Graphic Era University. She said students had reported losing phones and other belongings in the area.
Those alleged links have not been established in the available information. Kaushiki has asked police to compare the CCTV footage from different incidents, identify the suspect and investigate whether more than one person may be involved.
The family’s immediate requests are the recovery of the iPhone and action based on the CCTV footage, alleged messages and other information submitted to police. No confirmed recovery, arrest or official finding has been reported in the supplied material.
Conclusion
The Clement Town theft remains an allegation under investigation, with the family seeking action on CCTV footage and messages allegedly sent by the suspected thief. The next verified step would be an official police update on the complaint and inquiry.
