GUWAHATI: In a shocking incident reported from Rupohihat, located in Assam's Nagaon district, a 12-member dacoit gang executed a carefully orchestrated robbery on Tuesday evening. The mastermind behind this audacious plot has been identified as Ali Hussain, a member of the gang known for his strategic acumen.
The criminal ploy involved luring three unsuspecting individuals into a trap by posing as a potential client interested in renting a dumper truck. Ali Hussain managed to convince the victims to meet near a Yamaha dealer shop, setting the stage for the heinous act.
Upon reaching the designated meeting point, the victims were led to an innocuous house in the vicinity. Once inside, the gang sprang into action, ambushing the trio with a calculated display of force. The assailants brandished a gun to the head and a knife to the neck, swiftly overpowering the victims.
The ruthless criminals proceeded to loot the victims of a substantial amount totaling Rs 3 lakh in cash, along with their mobile phones and a valuable gold ring. After completing their nefarious act, the gang hastily fled the scene, leaving the traumatized victims to recount their harrowing encounter.
In the aftermath of the robbery, the victims courageously lodged a complaint at the Rupohihat police station. Responding promptly, the police were able to apprehend three of the accused dacoits, identified as Rinku Ahmed, Anisur Zaman, and Ismail Hussain. However, the search intensifies as law enforcement officials continue their efforts to apprehend the remaining members of the criminal gang.
This bold heist serves as a sobering reminder of the importance of community awareness and vigilanteness in the fight against organised crime. The prompt action taken by the police to apprehend a few of the offenders is indicative of their dedication to upholding justice and their continuous endeavours to guarantee community safety.
