The diamond weighs over 105 carats and is part of the British Crown Jewels in the Tower of London.

When asked for a message to King Charles, the individual requested the return of the Kohinoor diamond. The diamond's ownership has been a point of contention between India and England for decades. The mayor reportedly intended to ask the King to facilitate this return. The source noted the mayor appeared animated during conversations regarding the matter.
