Since masks are mandatory, everybody wears one and the police have had trouble identifying the criminals. Recently a masked man wearing a cap walked into a jewellery shop and started looking at some of the expensive jewellery. Suddenly he ran out of the shop with some of the jewellery. His friend was waiting outside on a motorcycle and they left together. Though the shop had a video of the incident the police could not identify the man since he was wearing a cap and a mask.
