Eventually, they launched an internal investigation, which found the cops guilty.

The report describes that in May, a woman had lodged a complaint with Delhi Police, claiming that thieves robbed ₹3.6 lakh from her house in Delhi's Bhajanpura area.  While the investigation was going on, Delhi Police learned that on the next day, two Noida police personnel robbed the thieves.
