Businessman robbed of Rs. 7 lakh

Staff Reporter

NEW DELHI: A businessman was allegedly robbed of Rs.7 lakh in cash by three armed young men in Ashok Vihar here on Saturday.

Sixty-three-year-old Ujjwal Singh was returning home in his car around 8-30 p.m. when three young men on a motorcycle waylaid him. One of them hurled a brick and broke the windscreen of his car. Dazed by the sudden attack, Mr. Singh stopped the car.

One of the robbers trained a country-made pistol at him, made him open the boot of the car where the cash was kept and drove away with the bag containing the money.

Mr. Singh owns in partnership a plastic goods factory in the Tis Hazari area. He was returning to his Ashok Vihar Phase-II residence with his weekly share when he was waylaid.

Tipped-off?

The police suspect that the robbers had been tipped-off by someone as they knew exactly where the cash was kept in the car.
