“One of the miscreants first came and asked my wife to speak to someone over phone. Sensing something fishy, my wife tried to close the gate but he managed to enter our house. When I tried to rescue my wife, the criminal pulled out a gun from his pocket and threatened to kill us,” said Tanuja’s husband, Debi Prasanna Das.
