Bahraini police are searching for two European men suspected of stealing a $1.5 million diamond necklace...
The necklace was an exquisite creation of renowned jewelers Cartier, on display Friday at the Jewelry Arabia exhibition when the two men struck.
"An employee at the stand handed it to them (the suspects) to inspect, then turned to deal with another customer," the paper said, quoting an official at the shop which ran the stand.
"When he turned back, one man had vanished with the necklace and the other man melted into the crowds in the ensuing confusion...
Renowned jewelers such as Chopard also had their glittering ware on display.
