In a disturbing incident on July 26 in Durgapura, Jaipur, a man was abducted moments after withdrawing nearly ₹9 lakh from a bank and robbed in broad daylight. The entire episode was captured on CCTV video, drawing widespread outrage.

The victim, identified as Jaswant from Jodhpur, had just collected cash from the bank and was walking along the road. A black SUV pulled up alongside him, and masked individuals forcibly bundled him into the vehicle. The assailants then fled the scene. The entire sequence was recorded on video and rapidly circulated on social media, prompting urgent response from law enforcement. 

Local police have initiated a manhunt for the suspects. Investigators are reviewing CCTV footage from nearby traffic cameras and toll points to identify the vehicle’s route and potential escape paths.

Officials have expressed concern over the brazenness of the attack, which occurred in broad daylight at a busy public location. Authorities are treating the case as high priority and have deployed multiple teams to track down the perpetrators.

This incident has heightened fears among the public and triggered demands for tighter security measures around cash-intensive zones like banks and ATMs. Jaipur police have increased patrols in such areas and set up checkpoints at key junctions to prevent similar crimes.

The victim has been assisted by law enforcement and is cooperating fully with investigators. No arrests have yet been made, and the investigation remains ongoing. The police urge anyone with information related to the incident or who recognizes the vehicle shown in the footage to come forward.

This case highlights growing concerns about daylight attacks targeting vulnerable individuals carrying cash and calls for stronger citywide vigilance and preventive measures.
