Two disguised as beggars loot gold ornaments

A woman and a youth, impersonating beggars, looted gold ornaments from a house of a businessman in the city's Sutrapur yesterday after making his daughter and a housemaid unconscious using drug.

Family members of Sohel Ahmmed, an import export businessman at Hrishikesh Das Road, said the unknown middle-aged woman and the youth took away around 80 tolas of gold ornaments from their ground floor residence around 3:30pm.

Sutrapur Police Station Officer-in-charge Nazrul Islam said the looters managed the security guards to gain entry into the house saying they had been called by the housemistress, Shahnaz Begum, for Zakat's clothes.

Soon after entering the house, they forcibly grabbed the housemaid, 20, first and then Reshma, 24, the daughter of the businessman, and used the drug, said the OC.
