A sensational theft incident has come to light in Rohiyawan village of Sultanpur district. Intruders broke into a house and stole gold and silver jewelry worth millions of rupees.
Details of the Incident:
On Sunday night, three perpetrators entered Dharmendra Nishad's house via the rooftop. They rendered the sleeping woman, Lakshmi, unconscious by making her inhale a narcotic substance. When a family member, Satyam, entered the room to use the washroom, the perpetrators seized him, tied his hands and feet, gagged him with a cloth, and held him captive. Following this, they broke the lock of the cupboard and stole gold and silver jewelry worth millions of rupees stored inside.
As the perpetrators were moving to another room, other family members returned after attending Durga Puja. Sensing the delicate situation, the perpetrators fled. Satyam somehow managed to knock over a stand fan in the room, and hearing the noise, the family members rushed to the room and freed him.
Police Action:
Upon receiving information about the incident, the police promptly arrived at the scene and initiated an investigation. Station House Officer Aniruddh Kumar stated that CCTV footage is being reviewed to identify the accused, and they will be arrested soon.
This incident has raised questions regarding security in the area. Local residents have demanded that the police administration strengthen security arrangements.
