New Delhi, Jul 29 (PTI) An 81-year-old woman doctor was injured after bike-borne snatchers robbed her of two gold chains in southwest Delhi’s Safdarjung Enclave area, an official said on Tuesday.

The incident took place on July 25 around 3 pm when the victim, identified as Dr. Sushila, a resident of Munirka, had gone to Safdarjung Enclave for some personal work, he said.

“While returning to her car, she saw a box kept near it. While she tried to remove it, two men on a motorcycle suddenly appeared. One of the accused snatched two gold chains from her neck,” a senior police officer said.

The sudden jerk caused the elderly doctor who runs a clinic in Sarojini Nagar Market to lose balance and fall, resulting in injuries to her. The accused fled the spot immediately after the incident.

Police registered a case of robbery on July 26 based on the victim’s statement. Police are scanning CCTV footage from nearby areas to identify and apprehend the culprits. Further investigation is underway. PTI SSJ SSJ SKY SKY
