As he was nearing Lamloi Square, four miscreants riding two bikes, all wearing helmets, waylaid Anil and attacked him with knives before speeding away from the spot with the cash bag. 

Seriously injured Anil was first rushed to Rajgangpur Community Health Centre (CHC) and later he was shifted to RGH.

Meanwhile, the police have launched a probe. Besides analysing the CCTV footage, they interrogated the petrol pump employees to know if anyone of them had briefed the miscreants about Anil going to the bank with cash.
