Just to start a new life with her paramour, a woman along with three other men robbed her brother and his family of cash and other valuables in day light in Northwest Delhi’s Shalimar Bagh area.
Vijayanta Arya, Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police 1 (Northwest) said, “We have arrested Aarti Aggarawal, her paramour Mohd Khan, Manjur Ali and Mohd Ahmed in connection with the case.”
Police said that on June 16 around 3:30pm they received information that two unidentified men committed robbery at the house of one Brijesh Aggrawal in AC Block and decamped with cash and jewellery.
As per the complainant, two men forcefully entered Brijesh Aggarawal’s house and held him, his wife Rohini, his sister Aarti and his five-year-old son hostage. The accused went to the room where the cash and other valuables were kept and escaped with it.
“During the course of investigation, we scanned the CCTV footage and put the bike of the accused on surveillance. Within a span of 24 hours, we managed to identify the main accused, Mohd Khan and nabbed him from Ghaziabad. We recovered the booty from the Maruti Eco car, which Khan was planning to fled away with. The second accused, Manjur Ali too was identified and traced to Mahendra Park.
Sustained interrogation of the accused left the police team in disbelief. The other accused was none other than the sister of Brijesh Aggarawal, Aarti.
It was Aarti who had planned to commit the robbery with the main accused Mohd Khan in the house of her own brother in order to repay the debts of Khan and to start a garment business,” said Arya.
Police sources said that six months ago Aarti met Mohd Khan and started seeing him. In the technical surveillance, it was found that Aarti had spoken on the phone with Mohd Khan for more than 500 times.
Further interrogation revealed the involvement of Mohd Ahmed in the conspiracy and he was nabbed from the Seelampur by a team of Shalimar Bagh police.Police added that they have recovered Rs1,06,000, gold ring, mobile phone, black pulsar bike and an Eco car from the accused.
