According to police, seven dacoits came to Vasudev Asranna's house asking for a medicine to cure skin disease. Asranna family is known for providing ayurveda medicine for skin diseases. The family members told them they don't give medicine as it was late in the night and asked them to come next day.

The gang left the house only to come back after some time. This time, they broke open the door and entered the house. They threatened the family members and fled with valuables. Police sources said the gang had come to priest's house thinking that there is 'treasure' inside. Finger print experts and canine squad were presses into service. Police suspect it is a handiwork of localites.

M Chandra Sekhar, city police commissioner, who visited the spot on Tuesday morning, said two teams have been formed to nab the culprits.
