The garment manufacturing unit, Fabrico Company, located at Dhan Apartments, Hill Road, was shut at 1.30 pm on Saturday. The proprietor, Manan Narayan Kamal, found the door of the factory ajar when he returned on Monday morning. When he entered inside, he found property worth Rs 7.9 lakh missing from the factory.

Investigating officer, assistant inspector of police K L Jadhav said six sewing machines and a large amount of cloth, including a big stock of readymade garments, were missing.

The Worli police, under whose jurisdiction the incident took place, said the robbers gained entry into the premises with the help of a duplicate set of keys. ``We suspect some insider could be involved in the robbery,'' said API Jadhav.

According to eyewitnesses and a building watchman, there were more than a dozen employees in the garmentmanufacturing unit on Saturday. Most of the men had free access to the workplace and were working on shift duty, making it all the more difficult to keep a tab on their movements.

The Fabrico Company has been locked after police conducted a `panchnama' on Monday evening.

Officers attached to Worli police said they are likely to nab the culprit after some routine investigation. All employees in the company are likely to questioned for more clues, the officer added.
