She then bought a new bike from Pollachi and even posted a video of the 'surprise gift' on social media. This video is what eventually led the police to her.

What made the police suspicious was a video Princy posted on social media around the same time. The video showed her surprising her boyfriend with a new luxury bike, with the caption "Finally".
After seeing the video, the police brought her in for questioning. That's when she confessed that she had bought the bike using money from the stolen gold.
Princy has been arrested and sent to judicial custody. Meanwhile, her boyfriend, 20-year-old Janakan Siva, is on the run and police are looking for him.
