PUNE: The Yerawada police on Sunday arrested a 41-year-old man for stealing a suitcase containing laptop and other valuables, collectively worth Rs46,000, from a luxury hotel on Ahmednagar Road in Ramwadi on November 7.
A team led by assistant inspector Rahul Giramkar made the arrest. Chief engineer of the water works department of Andhra Pradesh state government, Thota Venkata Nagendra Anji Ratankumar, had filed a complaint with the Yerawada police on November 7.

The police recovered the booty from the suspect, Atul Chhajed. Assistant sub-inspector Balasaheb Bahirat said Rajkumar had come to Pune to participate in an international conference on ‘sustainable water management’ at the hotel between November 6 and 8.
“On November 7, during the lunch break, Rajkumar kept his suitcase in the corner of the conference hall and went for lunch. The suitcase contained a laptop worth Rs40,000. When he returned, the suitcase was missing from its spot,” Bahirat said.
Rajkumar then filed an FIR with Yerawada police.
“We checked the hotel’s CCTV camera footage and found that a man left the hotel with the suitcase,” Bahirat said. The police traced the man with help of the footage to Mangalwar Peth and recovered the stolen suitcase and laptop from him.
