Two bike-borne youths snatched the gold chain of a 49-year-old woman outside her home in Sector 79 on Monday evening, according to police reports.
Incident Details
The victim, Navreen Kaur, stated that she was purchasing vegetables from a vendor near her residence at approximately 8:40 PM when two individuals on a motorcycle, both wearing helmets, approached her. One of them snatched her gold chain before the duo sped away. Kaur and her neighbors attempted to chase the suspects but were unable to catch them.
Victim's Account
Navreen reported that the stolen chain weighed 20 grams. Her family subsequently lodged a complaint with the Sohana police station, where a Daily Diary Report (DDR) was registered.
Community Concerns
Local residents have expressed strong criticism of the police, citing deteriorating law and order in the area. A report presented by the Punjab Government in the state Assembly earlier this year revealed that 55% of snatching incidents registered in the district remain unsolved, fueling public frustration.
Authorities have not yet identified the suspects, and investigations are ongoing.
