Five Gurgaon liquor vends robbed in a day

The second incident took place on the New Railway Road. According a salesman, four men with pistols entered the shop around 9.45 p.m and asked everybody to sit down. “While two stood guard at the entrance, the other two asked me to hand over the cash,” he added. While leaving, the robbers helped themselves to bottles of expensive whiskey and beer cans. Barely half an hour later, the wine shops at Palam Vihar and at the Delhi road near MUL were robbed in a similar fashion.

Santosh Kumar, a salesman, said that 4 to 5 men came at their vend at around 10.20 p.m. “They pointed pistols at us and asked us to open the gate. While entering they hit another salesman, Jage Ram in the ribs. The robbers even took out some liquor bottles and forcibly handed them over to a customer who happened to be visiting the vend. The poor man ran for his life,” Santosh recalls. The looting spree culminated at the liquor vend near Maruti Udyog from where the robbers took away cash boxes from a vend selling IMFL and an adjoining vend at around 10.30 p.m.
