Hi Vincent,

This sentence does not sound pleasing to my ears. Can you please provide me context to this sentence?

I gave the context as below:

After the burglars had caught by the police, luckily, the jewellery shop had no any loss.

Your sentence is a bit akward, VT. Here is a revision. I've tried to change as little as possible.

After the burglars had been caught by the police, the stolen merchandise was returned, and the jewellery shop luckily had no loss.

It would be more natural to say "the jewellery shop didn't lose anything".

I gave the context as below:

After the burglars had [were] caught by the police, luckily, the jewellery shop had no any loss.

After the burglars were caught/ captured by the police, the jeweler luckily counted no losses / did not suffer any loss.
