Hardoi – In a shocking case from Awas Vikas Colony under City Kotwali area, two conmen duped an elderly woman, Rajkumari Singh, of jewellery worth lakhs in broad daylight.
The woman was returning from a temple when the youths approached her, offering to clean her jewellery. To gain her trust, they first polished her silver anklet. Soon after, they escaped with nearly 7 tola gold ornaments and silver jewellery, including her bracelet and chain.
The entire escape was captured on CCTV, where the accused can be seen fleeing on a motorcycle while a local youth tried to chase them. The video is now viral on social media.
Police have registered a case on the victim’s complaint and launched an investigation. Locals, however, expressed anger at rising daylight crimes, alleging police failure in controlling such incidents.
