They lodged a complaint with the Tirupur South police who then confirmed the robbery after inspecting the CCTV footage from the area. They even acquired the IMEI number, a unique 15 digit code of the mobile phones. But the police were yet to file an FIR, Karthikeyan said.
The DCP directed the police to register an FIR and continue with the investigation.
