Daylight robbery: House burgled, silver stolen

FATEH JANG: Armed robbers burgled a house in broad daylight and looted cash, silver ornaments worth thousands of rupees and other valuables. Raja Jamil lodged a case with the police stating that armed persons barged into his house and made away with six carats of silver ornaments, Rs25,000 in cash and other valuables after holding the family members hostage at gunpoint. The police refused to register the case initially, claiming no such incident could occur in day time. Later, the police registered the case when the complainant told them he would approach the police high-ups if they did not lodge a case.
