Home ransacked as family grieve for dad in India

COUPLE'S WEDDING JEWELS TAKEN

- STEPHANIE BALLOO News Reporter

A BIRMINGHAM family returned from an emotional trip abroad to find their home ransacked in a £12,000 burglary.

Mukul Rathore, 33, and his wife Anik Gupta, 31, had been in India for the final rites of his father when they were 'tracked and targeted' for Asian gold last month.

When they returned home, they found their Edgbaston apartment had been turned upside down by thieves, who stole thousands of pounds worth of wedding jewellery.

Dad-of-one Mukul said he believed burglars had watched the family's movements as they travelled to and from to India to see his critically-ill father.
