A robbery involving two unidentified individuals, who entered a flat in Girgaon and fled with ₹10 lakh in cash after threatening the victims with a knife, has come to light. The V.P. Road Police have registered a case and arrested one of the accused, identified as Yuvrajsinh Ummedsingh (22), a resident of Undra village, Pindwada tehsil, Sirohi district, Rajasthan.
According to the police, the incident occurred on Friday, December 20, around 7 PM, at Shrinath Cooperative Society, Gulalwadi Circle, Second Panjarapole, Girgaon. Inderkumar Motilal Prajapati, a resident of Bhuleshwar and an employee of a private courier company, was carrying ₹10 lakh in cash given to him by his employer, Harish Prajapati.

While inside a flat, two young men followed him and barged in. They threatened Inderkumar and his colleague, Anuragsingh Umeshsingh Rajput, with a knife and demanded the money. After stealing the ₹10 lakh, the robbers fled the scene, throwing chili powder into the victims’ eyes to disorient them.
