Sir,

Re: Theft in our house-Report regarding.

I have to lodge a complaint about a petty theft that took place in our-house last night on the ground floor. No one stays on the ground floor. There are two rooms on the ground floor, in which we keep some articles which are rarely required for use, such as some utensils made of brass or stainless steel, some tools, some old furniture's etc. The thieves broke open the lock of one of the rooms, and robbed some of the utensils worth about two thousand rupees. We came to know about the theft in the morning that is today.

Please treat this note as an official complaint,, and record it in the F.I.R. You are requested to interrogate the local suspects and black-listed fellows to find out a clue to this theft, and take neces­sary legal action in this regard.

Please acknowledge receipt of this complaint, quoting the F.I.R. number with date assigned to it. Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,

Sir.

I beg to lodge the following report about a theft which took place in my house last night. It was in the small hours of the morning (between 2 and 4 a.m.) that the theft occurred. We were sleeping on the roof of the house. On hearing some noise I woke up. To my surprise I found the light was on in the lower room. I suspected that somebody had broken in to the house. I got up and shouted, “Who is there in the room?” As soon as I spoke, I heard the sound of footsteps of at least two men, hurriedly running out of the house. My suspicion of theft was confirmed. I went down with my brother with sticks in our hands. We went into the room where light was on. We discovered that the thieves had entered by breaking the window bars and had run away with gold and silver ornaments worth Rs. 218,000 and silk and woolen clothes worth Rs. 5000, besides currency notes of the value of Rs. 5500 and some silver coins and small change. In addition, they also took away “HMT” golden wrist watch and a ‘Parker 51’ fountain pen. They had broken open the boxes containing ornaments, clothes and cash. The empty boxes were found lying outside the house on the road.

I enclose a detailed list of the articles stolen.

I shall be obliged if you kindly take quick action to trace the culprits and recover the lost articles and cash.

Yours faithfully,
