Police Clueless About Buddha Theft at Indian Museum



CALCUTTA, INDIA.- After the theft of a Buddha head at the Indian Museum, police have interrogated several suspects these past days. The theft of the fifth century BC work took place last Thursday in the Archaeology Long Gallery. The police had said that the thieves had inside information regarding the security of the museum.

City detective chief Peeyush Pandey said, “Investigation has proceeded… but I wouldn’t want to use the word headway. There have been no arrests or recovery.”

Museum director S.K. Basu said: “The Central Industrial Security Force is preparing a report on the security needs for the museum. This will take into account modern gadgets that may have to be installed and ways to upgrade the existing arrangement. Once the CISF makes its suggestions, changes are expected.”
