In what could be a reflection of the law and order situation in the city, the brother of an employee in The Pioneer newspaper here was robbed in the intervening night of Tuesday and Wednesday at a distance of merely 500 metres from the Police Station of Sector 31.
A gang of three burglars not only hit 31 year old Ramjas, a resident of Jagatpura village on his head but also snatched his money and other valuables while he was on the way to his home. Ramjas said that three unidentified miscreants tried to kill him on the road near Kalibari light point, when he was waiting for an auto on his return from Noida to go to his Jagatpura house.
“There were three people on one bike. Two of them came to me and started punching me on my head with sharp edged weapon. When I succeeded to push one of them back and started running, they followed me but I managed to call PCR on 100 for help. They left me between but took my bag and purse which contained money and other documents,” Ramjas said. He alleged that there was delay in filing the FIR. When contacted, Station House Officer of PS-31, Kirpal Singh, claimed he immediately asked his subordinate to file FIR. No headway has been made in tracing the miscreants. The complainant is still in shock and afraid of come out of his home.
