A 26-year-old social media influencer, Mubeena, has been arrested for allegedly stealing gold ornaments worth lakhs from her relative’s home. The Chithara police apprehended her on Saturday following a complaint lodged by her sister-in-law, who reported that several sovereigns of gold were taken while she was away last month.
During the interrogation, Mubeena confessed to having previously stolen gold ornaments from a friend’s house as well. She is now facing charges under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS), as confirmed by police officials.
Mubeena’s significant following on various social media platforms adds a surprising twist to this case of theft, raising questions about the dual lives led by influencers in the digital age.
