MUMBAI: Two masked men scaled the 20-ft wall of Bollywood actress
Shilpa Shetty’s bungalow Kinara in Juhu and tried to steal valuables on June 6.
After scanning through at least 80 CCTV cameras, the Juhu police on Thursday arrested the two men Arjun Devendra (26) and Ramesh Devendra alias Ajay (22) from Nehru Nagar in Vile Parle. The duo already has 16 cases of housebreaking registered against them.
At the time of the theft attempt, the actress and her family were away in Italy on a family vacation.
They have yet to return. The hall, dining room, her daughter's bedroom, and the cupboard were ransacked, police said. “The CCTV cameras in the bungalow captured a man entering after remvoing the sliding window,” an officer from Juhu police station said.
