In a recent case of burglary, the residence of the media adviser to Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad was allegedly burgled in Rohini and about Rs 50,000 in cash and other valuable items was stolen on the intervening night of Monday and Tuesday. According to senior police official, NN Kaul, the media advisor to Prasad is residing at DDA flat in Rohini sector-3. He was at his daughter’s place in Noida when the incident took place and he was informed about it in the morning by his neighbour.
“On the basis of complaint, we have registered a case at the Rohini (South) Police Station and investigation is underway. We are also scanning footage from CCTV cameras in nearby areas in search of clues,” said a senior police official. “We were at my daughter’s residence in Noida from September 15 and were supposed to return on Tuesday. The neighbours noticed broken windows of the house and telephoned us,” said Bimla, Kaul’s wife.
“Two LED TVs, decoration items, Rs 50,000 cash, jewellery, laptop and at least a dozen expensive saris are missing,” said Bimla adding that this was not the first time that such an incident has happened. “Four years ago, when they were on a trip to abroad, a similar incident has occurred,” she said.
