Seven unidentified persons allegedly robbed a Sudan national of his purse containing his passport, Rs10,000, mobile phone, visa and other belongings, near the Airport light point here.

Complainant Salahuddin Bashir Khair Syed, a BTech student, told the police he was going to Delhi with his visa and passport and took a shared taxi from Banur to Zirakpur. When the taxi reached the Airport light point, the occupants told him that he was dealing in drugs and they would hand him over to the police. Syed realised that the men were planning to rob him and jumped out of the taxi, but the robbers stopped the car and started beating him. They later fled with his belongings, said the police. A case has been registered. — TNS
