    It’s not a solution to install cctv, every store kwwpwe can’t afford it. Some investigations needed as both the parties are non kannadiga and there must be some money dealings.

      CCTV solution cost as low as Rs 5000, the amount of loss / theft that happens in every shop is probably much more, cost is generally recovered with the first theft itself.
      Nowadays its connected online via mobile, so you dont even have to be in the shop, you can be at home and monitor the shop.
      So shopkeepers need to change their thinking.
