Basamma has been arrested and remanded in judicial custody.

The incident came to light when Shashidhar went to bedroom to retire for the night, after watching TV and having dinner. The police was informed soon after.

    This is foolishness, no body will keep stolen things in their trunk. With such a big booty she would have run away. I feel some one has trapped her to take revenge.

    M.Noronha..I would have commented in the same way if house maid had stolen from M.Noronha's house instead of Mr.Shashidhar Shetty's house..May be you don't know the pain of losing hard earned money. That is the problem.For your information,I have beautiful house maid(live in) who has been staying with my family in Manipal for the past 2 years.Outsiders think that she is one of our relatives ! That is the way we have been treating her.If she steals(she won't do),I will teach her not to steal till she dies..dear Noronha pls remember that,All rich people are not bad and all poor people are not good !

    Dinesh..why Jossey has to teach this lady about anticipatory bail and fake chest pain? We have our own very good stage actor Yediyurappa and Reddy bros..or you too can train her as you are a staunch supporter of the goons who looted our state. Don't go to Central Government so fast..Let's clear the shit from Karnataka first. Anna Hazare tried to attack central and he failed miserably. He should have started from Indian states that too from corrupt states and Karnataka ranks first in corruption. Jai ho...Koti koti pranamagalu Shreeman Yediyurappanavarighay......for looting Karnataka.

    Another poor soul tempted by Satan. Comments from Shetty, Pujari, Kamatrh, Nayak, Prabhu Blah Blah Forget all that Daiji Readers. Will the owner recover the valuables from Super Tieves the Karnataka Police ? They have to prove its ownership. So better take care of your valuables. Use bank Lockers and Insure. Otherwise forget it.

    God only can save the poor in this world. This shows how civilised we are. one side people with these kind of luxurious expensive item taking rest in their store room and the other side these poor lady whose family in need of that for their survival. I am not encouraging the steal but this could have been avoided if her house owner would trier win her trust by making her happy for the job she does. Rich people will suffer one day..

    Need to know problems facing poor maids. Some times we don't have enough time to hear their family problems. If we help them in their needs no maid will do this: unda manège kanna hakudilla. Help them for their kids education, medical problems, they will never forget your help.

    3.5 LAKHS LOOKS LIKE PEANUTS COMPARED To THE MILLIONS LOOTED BY OUR CORRUPT POLITICIANS???POOR THING WILL NOT HAVE BAIL & AS JOSSY SAID ONLY JAIL.
    LIFE IS REALLY CRUEL TO THE ONES WHO DO NOT HAVE.
    NO 5 STAR TREATMENT
    NO MONEY TO BRIBE THE JAILORS.
    A CRIME IS A CRIME BUT THE PENALTY YOU PAY IS ACCORDING TO THE STATUS YOU HAVE.............

    She may have watched on TV Yeddy. Katta etc faking high blood pressure/high diabetic etc. and should have fallen down writhing. Then she should have asked the police to take her to Victoria hospital, in that special room and then arranged for anticipatory bail.
    She can refer yeddy/katta/cheddy etc in her request for anticipatory bail.
    Court cannot deny at all!!!
