They dug up the leased diamond mine and dumped the excavated mud in the open area. When they ran out of money to dig the diamond mine further, they stopped digging.
On Monday morning, farmer Aklesh Pal went to his field and saw that the excavated mud of the diamond mine was washed away by heavy rains.
In its place, was lying a diamond. “Aklesh Pal showed honesty as he immediately informed his partners that he had found a diamond near the mine.
He could have easily pocketed the diamond without letting anyone to know about the discovery,” said a diamond examiner at Panna Diamond Officer Anupam Singh.
