BHOPAL: A homemaker-cum-YouTuber in Shivpuri district of Madhya Pradesh was allegedly robbed after burglars broke into her house early on Saturday, locked her family inside a room, and decamped with gold and silver jewellery, cash, and other valuables estimated at Rs 8 lakh to Rs 10 lakh.
The incident took place around 2 am in Mohani village under Narwar police station limits, when unidentified persons allegedly cut through barbed wire fencing and entered the house of Rachna Gurjar.
According to the complainant, the intruders locked the family inside a room while they were asleep and carried out the theft. The stolen items included jewellery, cash, and a carton of energy drink.
