Hyderabad Police Warn of Rising Domestic Help Thefts

The Hyderabad City Police have noticed a lot of thefts by domestic helpers in the past two years.

They say that 565 theft cases were reported, with 65 being serious and 500 not so serious.

The police think that employers are not being careful when they hire helpers, which is why these thefts happen.

They say that IT workers, students living alone, and elderly people are the most likely to be targeted.

The police also warn about groups of thieves from other states and countries who pretend to be helpers to steal.

They advise employers to check IDs, take photos, and get police verification before hiring.

They also say to watch new helpers closely, not share personal information, and use cameras and entry logs.

The police commissioner says that people's carelessness often helps criminals.

He asks everyone to report any strange behavior or missing helpers right away.
