Stolen


July 28, Tuesday.

The title of this blog is self-explanatory enough about the content followed below. Read on.

Deva or for that matter none of us here in cyprus would have ever imagined something like this happening to us. This day morning when deva woke up to start yet another day in office, little would anyone have imagined that it would begin with a shocker. His scooter was nowhere to be seen at his home. And after confirming with others if it was a prank, his worst fears came true. The scooter was stolen.

This was the 3rd such incident of theft occuring to someone in our batch in just a month. Not so long ago, on the last weekend of June, I too woke up to find my cycle missing from my home. After searching here and there and in office, it became pretty obvious that that was the last i had seen of it. Since it was just a cycle, there was nothing much I could have done or have taken the trouble to lodge a complaint.

And then in that same weekend, sarvo's car which he parked in the parking ground near office thinking it to be the most possible safest place while he would be away holidaying (uhmm working...) in US, also became the target. On monday morning while parking my car, i noticed the driver window glass all shattered and the stereo system inside the car gone. Since sarvo was not here, there was nothing much we could do except take away his car back home.

So, 3 of us have been robbed in less than a month. Thankfully, all were only material losses and no physical harm was caused to anyone.

We just hope nothing else bad happens during our stay in this beautiful island.
