Alan Walker concert Kochi

During a concert by Norwegian DJ Alan Walker at Bolgatty Palace in Kochi, an organized crime group allegedly stole at least 34 mobile phones, primarily high-end devices like iPhones. Police investigations revealed that many stolen phones were activated in other states, indicating that the thieves likely fled the area immediately after the event. The theft occurred despite a heavy police presence, with complaints coming primarily from the VIP area and fan pits where attendees were crowded. Investigators are analyzing CCTV footage, but dim lighting and a vast audience have hampered identification of the suspects. This incident, the first of its kind reported in Kerala, aligns with similar thefts at large events in cities like Mumbai and Delhi, suggesting a pattern of targeting crowded concerts. Authorities are gathering information from other states to track the possible organized group involved.
