Udupi, March 6: In a daring robbery, three youths barged into a house at Doddanagudde here in the intervening night of Sunday and Monday and made away with valuables worth around Rs. 14.5 lakh, including ornaments and a car.

Police said that the incident occurred at the house of Kanaka R Amin, located near Dr. A.V. Baliga Memorial Hospital, when Kanaka's brother Vasudeva Poojary and two relatives Prakash and Gurudas had been there for dinner.

The men were watching television in the hall when around 10.30 p.m., three youths came to the house and asked for “painter Santosh” and tried to enter the house. When Mr. Poojary and his relatives tried to stop them, the three youths forced their way inside.

They injured Mr. Poojary's right shoulder and his leg with a knife. The youths then stuffed their mouths with plastic and locked them in a room.

The youths then called Kanaka out of her room. They managed to get the keys to the cupboard by threatening her.

They then took away gold ornaments, including nine bangles, two chains, a diamond ring, an American diamond, a pair of diamond earrings, three wrist watches, Rs. 1.75 lakh in cash, three mobile phones, a laptop, and a four-wheeler.

The total value of the stolen items has been estimated at Rs. 14.5 lakh.

A case has been registered at the Manipal police station. Superintendent of Police M.B. Boralingaiah said that the police had got some clues. “We will crack the case soon. A team has been formed to nab the culprits,” he said.
