Theft of 3-Ton Cannon Allegedly Bollywood-Style
A 16th-century artifact cannon weighing approximately 3 tons was stolen tonight from the historic Narmwar Fort in the state of Madhya Pradesh, India, by an armed group consisting of 25 to 30 men. The attackers used a crane and a truck to smuggle the cannon, which dates back to the 16th century. Investigations indicate a possible link to an international antiquities smuggling network. The operation highlighted the security lapses at the site, as guards were unable to confront the attackers due to their possession of modern weapons and insufficient lighting and equipment. The cannon holds significant historical and cultural importance, reflecting the warfare technology and metalworking skills of that era.
