Man robbed of cash, ornaments

Staff Reporter

BANGALORE: Two persons attacked a man and robbed him of Rs. 22,000 in cash, a pair of gold rings and a gold chain in Srirampuram police station limits on Friday.

The police said that around 8.30 p.m. the two armed men waylaid Chandran, a resident of Banashankari, while he was walking near Khoday's Circle after alighting from an autorickshaw.

The two attacked him with an iron rod, pointed a knife at him and robbed him of the cash and gold jewellery worth Rs. 65,000, the police said. The Srirampuram police have registered a case on a complaint by Chandran.

Charred to death

A labourer was charred to death when his hut caught fire on Friday night. The police gave his name as Shivarudrappa Channaiah (40), a resident of Sreenivasapura Colony slum in Kengeri police station limits.

The hut caught fire when a drunk Channaiah lighted a stove for cooking food, they said. The Kengeri police have registered a case.

Murder accused held

The Upparpet police have arrested Karthik (19) who allegedly murdered his friend Mahesh (28), an employee of a bar and restaurant, and robbed him of Rs. 6,000 in cash. The police said that on September 8, Karthik, a resident of Balepet, had smashed Mahesh's head with a boulder at Tulasithota.

The Tenth Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Court on Thursday convicted and sentenced Dorai Babu and his wife Vijaya Kumari to four years imprisonment for running an illegal chit fund scheme and cheating the investors. The court also fined them Rs. 1,000 each.

The Indiranagar police had filed a charge sheet in the court that Dorai Babu and Vijaya Kumari, residents of Annaswamy Mudaliar Street, had collected Rs. 50,000 each from 10 investors and duped them during 1996.
