The robbers demanded information about valuable possessions and resorted to violence when Jitendra remained silent. They struck him on the head with the handle of a dagger. The intruders ransacked the bedroom, emptying the contents of the cupboard, but could only lay hands on a mangalsutra and a silver bowl. The perpetrators fled the scene through the front door.
After freeing himself, Jitendra immediately alerted his neighbours about the incident. The police were promptly informed and Wathoda Police and the Crime Branch rushed to the location to investigate. Acting swiftly on a lead, the Crime Branch’s Unit 4, headed by Police Inspector (PI) Gokul Suryavanshi, received information that the culprits were auto-rickshaw drivers residing in Rajiv Nagar area on Hingna road.
