Tirupati: According to early information circulating through industry insiders and unconfirmed sources, a private tech-manufacturing facility in Tirupati is suspected to have suffered a major theft of high-value mobile camera modules.
Preliminary estimates being discussed within the industry suggest that the stolen components could be worth “thousands of crores”, although there is no official confirmation from any authority yet.
Multiple insiders further mention that an internal investigation has reportedly been running for the last four months, quietly examining unusual stock irregularities and unexplained gaps in inventory logs.
Sources claim that the incident came to light after internal audits reportedly detected large discrepancies in component records. The nature of the missing parts suggests that the operation may have been highly coordinated, possibly involving individuals with specialized knowledge of the facility’s internal systems and movement patterns.
Possible International Links Under Scrutiny
Unverified reports also hint that a few individuals with international connections may have played a role in the alleged theft. Investigative teams are believed to be examining potential cross-border networks, given the high grey-market value of these components.
During the ongoing inquiry, some sources even hinted that a group with connections to a Noida-based mafia network may also have indirect involvement — though officials have not confirmed this angle and it remains only a part of the broader speculation circulating among industry watchers.
Action Expected Against Those Involved
While officials have not released any public statement yet, multiple sources suggest that strict action will be taken against anyone found involved once internal investigations reach a conclusion.
Security protocols at several similar facilities across the region have reportedly been tightened as a precautionary measure.
Official Confirmation Still Awaited
As of now, no government department or law-enforcement agency has formally acknowledged the incident. All information has emerged through sources familiar with the matter, and the situation remains under review.
