A daylight heist has triggered widespread alarm in the Nasirabad area near Ajmer, Rajasthan, where a gang posing as tax inspection authorities raided a local businessman’s residence in Mahesh Vihar Colony near the Dilwara bypass. Around half a dozen men arrived in a black Scorpio SUV and introduced themselves as Income Tax officers. Under the pretext of conducting an official search, the intruders manipulated the businessman's son and the women present inside the premises, ultimately escaping with valuable gold ornaments and mobile devices.
Impostors Arrived in Formal White Attire Carrying Official Files
The miscreants executed the operation with calculated precision. The black Scorpio pulled up outside the residence in Mahesh Vihar Colony, and approximately six men stepped out dressed entirely in white clothing. To project the appearance of legitimate government investigators, they carried official-looking files in their hands, while one of the men was wearing white gloves. Due to their formal attire and authoritative demeanor, the family members initially harbored no suspicion. Upon entering the house, the men claimed they had arrived to carry out an official Income Tax verification, quickly engaging the women and the businessman's son in conversation to distract and disorient them.
Locker Emptied Within 13 Minutes Before the Family Realised
Once inside, the suspects spent approximately 12 to 13 minutes moving through the premises and gaining access to the household locker. During this brief window, they removed substantial quantities of gold jewellery. According to initial details, the robbers took four pairs of gold bangles, one pair of gold patle, and a gold necklace. They also seized three mobile phones belonging to the residents. However, while leaving the residence, the suspects discarded one of the three phones, carrying the other two away with the looted ornaments.
Suspects Sped Away When Businessman’s Son Demanded Seizure Receipt
The impostors’ scheme unraveled as they prepared to exit the residence with the stolen property. Sensing that something was amiss, the businessman’s son, Kartik, attempted to stop the men and asked them to provide an official seizure receipt for the items being taken. The demand for documentation caught the suspects off guard. Refusing to produce any paperwork, they rushed toward their waiting black Scorpio. Although Kartik tried to intercept them, the men jumped inside the vehicle, slammed the doors shut, and sped away from the colony.
Police Review CCTV Footage as Colony Residents Express Fear
Following the report of the brazen robbery, Nasirabad Sadar Police Station in-charge Radheshyam Choudhary reached the crime scene along with a police contingent. Officers recorded detailed statements from the family members and initiated an extensive examination of CCTV surveillance footage installed across Mahesh Vihar Colony, the Dilwara bypass, and adjoining escape routes. Investigators are currently tracking the registration and movement of the black Scorpio to determine the gang’s arrival and departure paths. The daylight robbery, executed by men impersonating law enforcement personnel, has left local residents deeply concerned about neighborhood security.
