Cash, jewellery stolen from house
Amritsar, July 4
Two miscreants, who entered a house on the pretext of repairing locks of an almirah, decamped with cash and jewellery worth lakhs of rupees here. The incident occurred three days ago while a complaint was lodged with the police on Wednesday.
Subhash Chander (73), a resident of Gokul Avenue, Majitha Road, said on Monday he was at home when two persons called for repairing locks of an almirah. They demanded Rs 50 for repairing the locks.
He said one of the suspects was wearing a turban while other was clean shaven. He said the duo repeatedly sent his wife outside room where almirah was kept on one pretext or the other. He said while his wife was out of the room, the duo stole cash and jewellery from the almirah locker and fled from the house.
“They took away Rs 60,000 in cash, two gold chains, four gold rings, three gold tops and a gold earring set,” the complainant said. The police registered a case under Sections of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita against unknown miscreants in this connection.
