Thieves targeted two separate houses in a single night in Gagor village, located within the Rajgarh tehsil of Churu district, making off with approximately eight lakh rupees in cash and a large quantity of gold and silver ornaments. This major burglary has caused severe financial distress to both affected families. The most tragic aspect of the incident is that the stolen jewelry and cash had been carefully saved by the families for the weddings of their children scheduled for November and December.
Intruders Entered By Breaking Windows
According to the report submitted to the police, the unidentified thieves executed the crime during the night hours. The culprits approached both houses from the rear, broke the windows to gain entry, and subsequently smashed interior locks to loot the cash and valuable ornaments. Surprisingly, the family members remained completely unaware of the intrusion while the crime was taking place. The theft came to light the next morning when family members woke up and saw household items scattered everywhere. Immediately after discovering the break-in, the victims informed the local police.
Cash and Precious Ornaments Stolen
According to available details, the thieves first targeted the house of Vikesh Singh, stealing eight lakh rupees in cash along with numerous gold and silver items. The stolen valuables from this household included gold bangles, rakhri, nath, necklaces, earrings, rings, and other ornaments, alongside missing silver pieces. Simultaneously, the house of Naresh Singh was also ransacked. Several ornaments including a gold rakhri, earrings, bali, nath, and rings were stolen from here. Furthermore, silver coins, lockets, and other valuable items were taken away by the culprits.
Crisis for Families Amid Wedding Preparations
Both families had saved cash and ornaments over a long period for the upcoming marriages of their children. Consequently, losing their entire savings in a single night has plunged their wedding preparations into serious crisis. Following the incident, an atmosphere of worry and concern prevails across the entire village. Upon receiving information about the event, the Rajgarh police station registered a case and initiated an investigation. The police are currently working to identify the unknown accused based on the modus operandi and evidence gathered from the crime scene, while efforts are underway to trace the culprits.
