Two elephant tusks worth ₹2 crore were stolen from a Kerala military camp, sparking an investigation into possible insider involvement.

Two elephant tusks valued at ₹2 crore, part of a 1929 heritage collection, were stolen from the high-security Pangode military camp in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, between February 11 and 12. The theft was discovered during a post-party inspection at the Officers’ Club, prompting a police investigation. Authorities suspect insider involvement and are reviewing CCTV footage and the guest list from a DJ party held at the facility. The tusks, stored in a strongroom, are believed to be linked to organized smuggling due to their high international value. A case has been filed under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, and both police and military officials are probing the incident, including internal security lapses.
