A teacher of the Government Higher Secondary Boys School, Basant Lal, has alleged that four armed men entered his house by breaking the lock of the main gate and forced the residents to hand over all the valuables in the house.
On resistance of the family members, the robbers severely beat up two women and his brother Mukesh Kumar with a rifle, he claimed. Lal said that they had been deprived of gold ornaments and cash.
This is the second incident in which a Hindu family has been targeted by the robbers. Previously, robbers had barged into the house of another teacher, Manghan Mal, and robbed him of valuables. Trader Dayal Das said that they had no enmity with anyone but had been made a target because they were a minority. He feared that their lives were unsafe because of the police’s attitude towards them and their failure to protect their lives. Das claimed that at the time of the crime there was no police in the area.
