As per a report in the India Today, one man identified as Devraj threw away the jewel said to be worth Rs 5 lakh. The man on realising that he had put the diamond necklace to waste, immediately decided to apprise the authorities.
Devraj contacted the company named Urbaser Sumeet which is contracted by the Chennai Corporation for waste management. He also informed the senior officials in the department concerned who are said to have monitored the search operation.
J Anthonysamy— a driver from Urbaser Sumeet led the search which also saw the involvement of sanitation workers. After a prolonged search task, the necklace was found entangled in a garland inside a waste bin.
