This theft has defeated even the films, who is Preet Panesar, whom Canada is demanding back from India?
News India Live, Digital Desk: You must have seen big thefts in ‘Money Heist’ on Netflix or in Hollywood movies, where thieves make the treasure disappear in the blink of an eye. But imagine, what if this really happens? And that too at one of the safest airports in the world? Nowadays, there is a lot of discussion about a name between Canada and India and that name is that of Preet Panesar. After all, who is this and why is the Canadian government demanding this from India? Let us understand this whole story in simple words. Who is Preet Panesar? Preet Panesar was not an ordinary thief or robber. He was a former employee of ‘Air Canada’. That is, the matter turned out to be the same “Ghar ka Bhedi Lanka Dhaay”. He is accused of taking advantage of his job and position to carry out the biggest gold theft in the history of Canada. According to media reports, the Canadian government has now formally requested India to hand over Panesar to them. He should be sent back to Canada so that legal action can be taken against him there. That night, when gold worth crores went missing. This story is of April 2023. A cargo container arrives at Toronto’s Pearson International Airport. It contained 6,600 gold bars and foreign currency worth crores of rupees. The total cost was said to be around 22 million Canadian dollars (about Rs 135 crore). Normally, even a bird could not be caught at the airport, but that day, by showing a fake document (Fake Waybill), the truck driver easily took away the precious container. By the time the security personnel got wind of it, it was too late. There was suspicion that some insider was involved in this entire scheme, and the needle of investigation stopped on Preet Panesar. Now what next? It is reported that soon after the theft, Panesar had left the job of Air Canada and went missing. Canadian agencies believe that he may be hiding in India. That is why now the process of extradition has been started. This matter is not only about theft, but has also come between the diplomatic relations of two countries. People are surprised how an educated person took such a big risk. Well, now it remains to be seen whether Panesar gets caught by the police or this too will remain an unsolved puzzle. As soon as there is any new update on this, we will definitely let you know. But this much is certain, this story has no less spice than a thriller film!
