Margao, Jul 25: Police stated that a robbery took place in the wee hours of Thursday, July 24, in the Gautam Talaulikar electronic shop. Robbers decamped with four video cameras worth nearly Rs 4 lac.
The shop is located by the main road, and besides a security guard in the building, there is also a 24-hour petrol pump just opposite it. The fact that a robbery took place despite all this has spread shock waves and people are now concerned about their security.
A spate of robberies have taken place in the state, with most of them in chief minister Digamber Kamat’s constituency, despite the police claiming that they have intensified patrolling at night.
