Five unidentified persons barged into a factory in Focal Point here and after holding a security guard captive, decamped with goods. The value of the goods taken away by the suspects was said to be in lakhs.

The complainant, Manish Kumar, a resident of the Badewal road area, said he owns a factory on the Sahnewal road in Focal Point. On the night of October 30, the security guard at the factory called and told him that some unidentified miscreants had barged into the factory and committed a loot.

“The five robbers had entered the factory by scaling the outer wall. They first beaten up the guard and held him captive. Afterwards, they took away 12 quintal of copper and 600 kg of aluminium from the factory. I urged the Ludhiana police to identify the suspects and nab them so that the robbed factory goods can be recovered,” the factory owner said.
