Three eunuchs robbed a pregnant woman and her husband on Friday in their house in upscale Sector 46 area of the city, fleeing with Rs 10,000.
In the police complaint, the woman said she was preparing lunch for her son in the morning when the three eunuchs came to her house and demanded money on the pretext of offering them blessings.
"I requested them to wait there for some time so that I could make lunch for my son who was getting late for school. In the meantime, one of them started using abusive language. My husband immediately came and gave Rs 2,100 but they demanded Rs 21,000. The eunuchs threatened to take Rs 51,000 if they came again on Sunday," the complainant said.
"My husband was negotiating with them with his wallet in his hand when one of the eunuchs snatched it and took away Rs 10,000. Another one tried to allegedly snatch a gold chain from my neck but I managed to escape and raised an alarm," woman said.
"Seeing residents of neighbouring houses assembling there, they fled from the spot in a car," she said.
An FIR has been registered at Sector 50 police station and a special team has been formed to probe the incident, the police said.
"We have registered an FIR of robbery under relevant sections of the IPC and investigation is underway," said SHO Shahid Ahmed.
