Lutale said he had to Fairway Hotel to pray and have lunch there after before the thief broke into his car.

“There is a mosque inside the hotel, so I had passed by to pray and have lunch there after prayers. And I had just entered. I suspect he was following me, because he first stood at the main door for some seconds then proceeded to the back door where the camera was and just opened smartly,” Obeid said.

Lutale has since reported the matter to police and detectives are working together with Fairway Hotel security personnel to hunt down the shameless thug and bring him to book.
