Video: Armed robbers attack man inside shop in Punjab, flee with cash, mobile

A man was critically injured in Punjab’s Moga district after at least four to five armed robbers entered a medical shop and attacked him with sticks and sharp-edged weapons, before fleeing away with cash and mobile phones.
The incident happened on Wednesday, September 18, in the Moga’s Duneke area when the man, identified as Rajesh Kumar, had gone to meet his friend Shamsher Khan.
After meeting Kumar, Khan asked him to sit in the shop as he went out for some urgent work. Four to five masked men then entered the shop and attacked Kumar with sticks and sharp-edged weapons before fleeing with cash and a mobile phone.

A CCTV footage of the incident shows the men attacking Kumar with sticks, swords, and other sharp-edged weapons as he tries to resist them. After the attack, when Kumar lost consciousness, the attackers took away the cash and his mobile phone.
Later, Kumar was rushed to a private hospital in Punjab where he received treatment for his injuries.
“Four to five people came on two motorcycles and their faces were covered. They attacked me with sticks and swords. They also abused me and then fled away with money and my mobile phone. I have received 19 stitches on my head and I want action against the accused,” Kumar said.
A case has been filed against the unknown attackers under the relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS) and a probe has been launched to arrest them.
Speaking about the case, a senior official of the Moga Police said, “We are investigating the case based on the complaint filed by Rajesh Kumar at the City Police Station. Several teams have been formed and all the accused will be arrested soon”.
