Mangaluru, Sep 19, 2023: Three men who knocked on the door of a house near the Chandramouleshwara Temple at Kolnad, Mulki on September 17, Sunday, on the pretext of seeking an empty bottle to get petrol, wielded knife at the lone woman in the house and escaped after snatching her Mangalasutra.
Three men came by a bike to the house of Vasanthi and initially asked for an empty bottle. Vasanthi duly gave them a bottle. After some time they came again seeking another bottle and then attacked Vasanthi before escaping with her Mangalasutra.
The robbers had escaped by the time the locals gathered on hearing the screams of the woman.
