Thane: Unidentified persons burgled a jewellery shop in Thane last night, police said.

Gold and silver jewellery weighing altogether about 7 kg was found to have been stolen from Punamia Jewellers, located near the Thane railway station.

The burglars probably used a gas cutter to break the locks and open the safe, police said.

The break-in apparently took place between 2 am and 3 am.

Kamlesh Srisrimal, president of Thane City Jewellers Association, said that as an act of solidarity, jewellery shops in the city remained closed this morning.
