Armed robbers struck again in the city, this time targeting a gas agency employee at Guru Vihar on Rahon Road on Tuesday afternoon.
However, the victim fought off the two robbers, who fled after injuring him with a sharp-edged weapon.
The victim, Badru Ansari, 48, told the police that he was tasked with collecting cash for Thaman Gas Agency.
Agency’s owner Amit Thaman said Ansari had collected Rs 74,000 from the areas near Rahon Road on Tuesday. On his way back, he was intercepted by two motorcycle-borne men.
