Petrol pump looted

Walanj said that the miscreants escaped into the bushes nearby taking advantage of the darkness. While four of them were wearing only underwear, the remaining four were wearing trousers and shirts.

Walanj said that three of his colleagues, including two fillers, sustained minor injuries and were discharged from the hospital after first aid. The assailants seemed to hail from urban areas, said Walanj.

Miscreants, unlike the Gorwa petrol pump loot, did not use red chilly powder or sharp-edged weapons, suggesting that it could be another gang. This is the third incidence of petrol pump loot in the city in the last month. A petrol pump in Undera village under Gorwa police station was looted in the first week of this month.
