A post shared by Ricky Kej (@rickykej)


Ricky Kej is an Indian music composer, environmentalist, and a three-time Grammy Award winner. The composer took to his Instagram account to share that a Zomato delivery partner allegedly entered his home on Thursday. Sharing clear CCTV footage, Ricky mentioned that the incident happened around 6 pm in the evening, calling it “quite bold” of them.

Ricky Kej also wrote, “This is probably not their first time. They came in just 15 minutes earlier for a recce, and then trespassed and committed the crime.” In the post shared by the composer, the footage can be seen from two angles. The delivery agent first enters the home through the main gate, looks around, and then proceeds to remove the sump cover. He takes the cover, exits the house, and rides away. From the footage, it appears that the delivery agent was possibly helped by another person who was riding the two-wheeler.
