Ludhiana, December 15
Four armed miscreants robbed a shopkeeper of Rs 88,000 at gunpoint on the Chandigarh road here on Wednesday.
Rinku Garg complained to the police that he was heading to Kesarganj Mandi to buy stock for his provisional store. When he reached near Jain School on the Chandigarh road, two motorcycle-borne robbers stopped him and then the other two came later.
“They pointed a gun towards me and asked to hand them over cash and other valuables, else threatened to shoot me. When I resisted their move, they thrashed me and fled away with the cash,” revealed Rinku Garg.
Rinku Garg then informed the police, which reached the spot. To identify the robbers, the police are scanning the CCTV footages.
The Focal Point police have registered a case against the unknown persons and launched a probe. — TNS
