Burglars Wednesday night decamped with around Rs 7 lakhs from a shop near Super Market in the City Chowk area, Shalamar.
Beopar Mandal President Ashok Kumar Gupta told media persons that burglars broke open the shutters of a shop and decamped with Rs 7 lakh.
“The Police should investigate the non-local rehriwalas and shopkeepers as this shopping place never witnessed theft,” Gupta said and expressed suspicion about the non-local traders working in Jammu.
Following the theft incident, the shop owner has lodged a complaint with the Police.
