In a daring daylight robbery, three unidentified men made off with Rs 14 lakh from a 22-year-old shopkeeper in northwest Delhi's bustling Model Town area. The young victim, named Kartik, recounted to the police how the men employed a ruse to gain entry to his shop.

The audacious trio approached Kartik under the guise of updating their mobile number in Aadhaar details, an excuse that allowed them access inside. Once inside, the situation escalated swiftly as one of the men bolted the shop door, another aimed a pistol at his head, and the third pressed a knife to his neck, demanding cash.

After the terrifying ordeal, the suspects fled with a bag containing the substantial cash amount. Law enforcement has initiated a case and is meticulously examining CCTV footage from nearby areas to bring the perpetrators to justice.
