Robber threatens woman with knife, steals ₹3-4 lakh jewelry near Regent Park

In a daring robbery near Regent Park police station, a criminal followed a woman and entered her residence. The accused reportedly threatened the woman with a knife and looted jewelry worth ₹3-4 lakh. The victim immediately lodged a complaint with the police, who have initiated an investigation into the incident. Authorities are reviewing available evidence and attempting to identify the suspect through local surveillance footage.

This robbery follows a series of recent similar incidents in Kolkata. Three days ago, a separate robbery took place on Central Avenue where an elderly woman was threatened with a weapon, and her entire house was looted. Police sources indicate that the elderly woman was alone at the time of the attack, and her daughter resides in Bengaluru. Investigations are ongoing, and the police have yet to confirm any connection between the two incidents.

In another robbery, two days prior to the Regent Park incident, criminals struck at Nalta School House Road in Dum Dum Municipality. The thieves broke into the house by smashing a window, then ransacked the wardrobe and made off with valuables including jewelry and cash.
