In a surge in robbery cases at Kalupur Railway Station, a BSF jawan (Border Security Force), originally from Uttarakhand, has been robbed of ₹1.26 lakh via mobile phone.
The BSF personnel were to board a train to be on their duty at Morbi and were waiting for a train at the Kalupur Railway Station in Ahmedabad.
Meanwhile, a man approached him and gained his trust, saying, “I am also from the (armed) forces.”
Later, the BSF personnel asked the accused to look after his bag while he went to use the washroom and had breakfast. When he returned, the man was nowhere to be found.
Upon checking his bag, the official found that his mobile phone worth ₹5,000 was missing. When his train arrived at the station, the jawan boarded it.
However, the problems piled up for him as he found later that ₹1.26 lakh were withdrawn from his bank account.
The victim visited Kalupur Railway Station again and complained to the Kalupur Railway Station police.
The Kalupur Railway Police has registered a case regarding this incident and conducted further investigation based on the CCTV footage.
