The Story in Brief
Police have arrested four men in connection with the robbery of Rs 1.53 lakh from a liquor contractor in Faridabad. The plot was hatched by a former employee, Prince, who knew the contractor carried daily sales proceeds home. The accused were arrested on Thursday and sent to police remand on Friday.
In a separate incident in northeast Delhi, police arrested three men and apprehended a minor for a gunpoint robbery of Rs 3.5 lakh. The victim's employee, Mohit, allegedly shared his live location with the robbers and identified the cash bag with a gesture. Police have recovered Rs 15,000 and the motorcycle used in the crime.
The Indian Opinion
The usual narrative blames these crimes on rising unemployment or lawlessness. Both cases show something simpler: someone known to the victim gave away the plan. The Faridabad accused had even tried once before and failed. The test for police is not just an arrest but a conviction, and for shop owners, a sharper eye on who they hire and how cash moves after dark.
