Guwahati, 30th March: The intrusion of burglars at a holy place has once again marred the reputation of Guwahati, with a Namghar situated in the Narengi area being the latest target. The incident, reported from Juba Nagar under the jurisdiction of Noomati Police Station, occurred on Friday night.
The burglars, breaking into the Namghar, raided the donation chamber of the complex, including the storage room and the precious items kept at the shrine. Apart from looting the place of worship, the thieves also vandalized the chambers of the Namghar. The stolen items included cash donations, as well as valuable items such as brass utensils, sacred scriptures, and other assorted items.
Not content with their haul, the burglars forcibly entered the premises of a Laxmi Temple and a Shiva Temple adjacent to the Namghar, making away with cash donations from the donation boxes.
Following a complaint filed by the management committee of the Namghar, Noomati Police officials arrived at the scene and canvassed the area of the crime. A case was registered based on the complaints, and the police initiated investigations into the matter to gather evidence and initiate further inquiry.
