Youths rob doctor
From Our Correspondent
AMBALA, Sept 15 — Three youths reportedly robbed a pistol and Rs 15,000 from a doctor on gunpoint at Barara, 20 km from here, this morning.
According to information, three youths on a two-wheeler came to the residence of Dr Harish Modgil. They told the doctor that one of them was seriously sick and wanted to consult him.
As soon as the doctor opened the door, the youths overpowered him. The youths forced him to hand over whatever cash he had in his house. The doctor gave them Rs 15,000. The youths then observed that a pistol was kept in the room of the doctor and took it away before fleeing.
Meanwhile, the SP, Mr M.S. Malik, said that police posts of the surrounding area had been alerted. No clue had, however, been found so far. A case has been registered against the youths.
