Theft happened two days ago:
Last Sunday, theft took place in Gopalnagar Mohalla of Biswan. Anuj Shrivastav, a resident of this place, had gone to attend a marriage function in Laharpur with his family. The thieves broke the lock of the house during the day and stole cash worth 40 thousand rupees and jewellery worth about two lakh rupees. This case has not been solved yet.
Police claim- Patrolling is done throughout the night.
Imalia Sultanpur police station is about one kilometer away from the crime scene. There is a development block office, hospital, bank and business establishments in the village. That is why a police picket is also established there. A constable and two home guards are deployed in the picket. Police claim that the picket and police vehicle patrol throughout the night. However, the fearless thieves who targeted nine houses have proved the police claim hollow.
