The CCTV footage shows the alleged victim, dressed in an orange top.

While she is picking out clothes, another woman follows closely behind her, behaving in a suspicious manner.

The entire episode is over in less than five minutes. The shopkeeper will hand over the video footage to the police.

These pickpockets will put a clothing on their fore arm as a cover and the other hand will go into your pocket/purse.

Mata had advised shoppers to be careful of these people and also those who carry a sling bag (usually a briefcase) infront of them in crowded places as they will use the bag as a cover.
