Rayagada: A woman sustained critical cut injuries in the attack of a group of men who entered her house located in Niladri Vihar area under Gunupur town in the district with a motive of robbery on Saturday. However, she successfully foiled the loot attempt.
The girl identified as Nandini Panigrahi (23) who lives in her uncle’s house in the Lane 4 of Niladri Vihar area was alone in the house when the masked robbers struck. After breaking into the house from the backdoor, they threatened Nandini to handover the keys of almirahs and ATM cards with passwords. As the girl denied to act accordingly, the robbers attacked her with blades on her neck and arms. Later on, they fled from the spot after some neighbours reached there hearing screaming of the girl.
Nandini, who fell unconscious during the scuffle with the robbers, was rushed to the Gunupur Sub-Divisional Hospital by neighbours immediately.
While no complaint has been registered in the incident by the family members of the girl, Gunupur Police have lodged a suo-motu case on the basis of the doctors’ report available at the hospital. They have also started investigation in this connection.
