Prime Minister Narendra Modi's niece Damayanti Ben Modi was mugged by two bike-borne miscreants in New Delhi.
According to media reports, Damayanti Ben, who is the daughter of PM Modi's younger brother, filed a police complaint saying she was mugged outside Gujarati Samaj Bhavan in Delhi's Civil Lines.
She said she had reached Delhi from Amritsar on Saturday morning and had booked a room at Gujarati Samaj Bhavan. When she was near the gate of the hotel, the thieves snatched her handbag and made away with it.
According to the complaint, she had around Rs. 56,000 in cash apart from important documents in the handbag. Two mobile phones were also stolen from her.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s official residence is merely a few kilometres away from the spot where the theft took place.
A complaint has been lodged and investigation is underway. Nobody has been arrested in connection with the incident yet.
