In another incident, three robbers snatched Rs5,000 in cash and 10 tolas of gold jewellery from two sisters in Serai Alamgir near Koth Kariala. Meanwhile, thieves decamped with Rs20,000 in cash and cigarettes worth around the same amount from the shop of Sarfraz Ansari in Jalalpur Jattan.
PROBE ORDERED: The district Nazim has directed the Kharian DSP to initiate departmental probe against the SHO, an ASI and moharrar of Kharian Saddar police station for keeping a girl in illegal confinement.
