NAGAON, August 30: A well equipped gang of miscreants on Monday night entered into a roadside dhaba near Dakorghat on Nagaon bypass road and looted cash from the establishment under Borghat patrolling outpost, sources said on Tuesday.
The gang of miscreants reportedly assaulted the proprietor as well as other employees of the dhaba and also vandalised the furniture of the establishment. The gang then fled safely with the cash from the scene.
The proprietor of the dhaba immediately informed Borghat patrolling outpost police. But the police of the patrolling outpost allegedly reached the spot after several hours, sources said further.
Meanwhile local Borghat patrolling outpost police registered a case in this regard and have started an investigation into the entire episode.
It is alleged that cases of drug trafficking, dacoity as well as other forms of criminal activities have increased across the district in the last couple of months due to inactivity as well as negligence of police officials of various police stations and outposts of the district.
