Fri, Feb 21 2020So pathetic, and such a low act! These morons should be caught early and whipped in public! A few years ago, my elderly sister was robbed of her gold in bulk, while travelling in a bus. She was not wearing, but carrying in her bag, later to be worn at a wedding which she was going to attend. But somehow, the robber lady, sitting next to her in a crowded bus, managed to make a large hole to her bag, and take away her purse containing the gold. It was too late she realized that she was robbed. The lady appeared to be not local, but from a different State.

Thu, Feb 20 2020Readers, kindly do not flash your jewellery or brag about your assets in public..... Do not keep any valuables in your home, rather hire a bank locker..... We are all living in Kaliyug !!! Wear imitation jewellery only... Better be safe, then be very sad and sorry !!!!

Thu, Feb 20 2020In India and in some countries we are crazy for gold and silver and blocking the movement of money
In Europe it is not so they don't show off with ornaments and expensive clothing how much rich they are
So utilize your money in some other business or agriculture rather than in buying gold and keeping inside the cabinet which for you only not safe and you cannot sleep peacefully or cannot go out leaving the house

Thu, Feb 20 2020These snatchers should be shot at gun point who are evens to the society.
Last week the similar incident occurred in Kirem, one elderly lady was attached.
Snatchers didn’t even spare the elderly lady even though she fell down to the ground.
I guess no arrests so far has reported.

It's not possible for government to keep gun men to save the ladies from snatching the gold. Best thing is don't wear the gold at all... Without gold we can attend any functions... Go anywhere... Where in Kirem exactly?

Thu, Feb 20 2020Very sad.Its double so sad as she lost her husband lately.One should be careful nowadays to wear gold in public as we know ,very often gold chains or kariyamani are snatched by bike-borne.Best is wear it only on special days and travel with car or Rikshas.Normal daily routines a market chain too will fill its purpose.Hope these goons will be caught soon and get back her chain.
