Narasinghpur: Narasinghpur in Cuttack distrcit has become a paradise for burglars as they have gone on a looting spree in the last four days stealing valuables from over 15 houses.
Reports said the burglars have almost wiped off these houses decamping with jewelers, valuables and cash worth of several lakhs of rupees at dead of night.
The dacoits barged into the houses at Nizigarh Balisahi villages and decamped with over eight tolas of gold, jewellery and cash amounting to Rs 50000 on Friday late night. The burglars adroitly bolted the doors of the houses from outside and indulged in a looting spree.
The miscreants after taking away the valuables dumped the boxes and other containers at a nearby field. Sources said in most cases the house owners have not complained to the police about the dacoity.
Locals alleged that night patrolling by police have not yet started and urged them to initiate measures to curb incidences of theft in the region.
