A family was robbed of cash and valuables at gunpoint at the junction of Sunset Boulevard on Monday night. A woman called up Dawn office to narrate her ordeal. She said, “At around 8pm, we were coming from PN Shifa Hospital to the Sunset Boulevard through the post office road where an armed man, accompanied by three or four others, knocked at the window of our car. I asked my husband to give away whatever he had,” Mrs Khan said. The armed robbers fearlessly went to other cars and applied the same technique, she added.

Almost at the same spot, she said, they were deprived of their car at gunpoint sometime back.

She criticised the government for failing to keep street crime in check.
