NEW DELHI: In a swift and coordinated operation, Delhi Police on Tuesday arrested four individuals who allegedly robbed an 86-year-old woman of her gold jewellery after entering her house on the pretext of enquiring about a room for rent in the Bindapur area of Dwarka district.
According to the Dwarka District Police, the accused — two women, their brother, and a friend hatched the plan after spotting the elderly woman wearing gold ornaments while sitting outside her home. A board displayed outside the residence, indicating that a room was available for rent, gave them the opportunity they needed to gain access to the property.
The arrested individuals have been identified as Anjali, Ranju, and their brother Ratan Mehto, all siblings, along with their friend Raju. Police have recovered one pair of gold bangles, one pair of gold earrings, and one gold ring, all of which had been forcibly removed from the victim during the robbery.
