New Delhi: Five people were arrested for robbing Rs 43 lakh from a cash collector of a garments company in Gandhi Nagar. The man had been waylaid on June 26, beaten up and robbed. The company was owned by

Deepak Gambhir

, father of cricketer Gautam Gambhir.

The robbers—Mohammad Tahseem, Gulzar, Kalicharan, Mohammad Mazid and Mohammad Naim—had fled to UP after the incident and bought an i10 with the money (the cash bag contained Rs 6 lakh cash and Rs 37 lakh in demand drafts).

The victim, Shyam Mohan Tiwari, had lodged a complaint with the

Gandhi Nagar police station

in which he had said that he had collected the money from another garment firm and attacked.

“CCTV footage was analysed and technical surveillance mounted on the suspects,” said

DCP

(east) Rishi Pal.

Police learnt about some of the robbers meeting at Khajoori Khas. Five men were arrested in a raid at Shri Ram Colony but one got away.

During interrogation, Kalicharan said he worked as a salesman in the same area and knew about Tiwari coming for collection on Sundays and passed on the information to his associates.

We are not supporting corruption under Kejirival or Modi. But when CBI takes hasty moves against Delhi government officials people doubts the real motives of the CBI and central government since it is widely accepted that Delhi government has taken more initiatives to tackle corruption than any other statement government or the central government itself. So the central has a responsibility to prove its motives since Delhi government is also elected by the people of Delhi. Central has to play a pro-active and positive role when it comes to relations with the states. Justice and truth shall prevail and we all have to work together to strengthen our democracy and federal system. Central government has a huge responsibility to play in this regard. If we sow good seeds, good we reap. Central and states should have mutual respects for the welfare of the people and development of the country. Fight against corruption has to continue but not for scoring political gains. We need strong mechanisms like the LOKPAL to tackle corruption. Expecting ANNA to push the central government again for strong LOKPAL!
