According to the police, the gang members, 10 in all, had robbed a Tata-407 truck from the furniture market near the bus stand at Kanjhawala Road, Mangolpuri and abducted the driver and helpers.

They also took away Rs. 1,600, a mobile phone and some documents from them, the police said. Police said they also killed a worker at a factory and stabbed a driver of a truck they had looted.

A police team intercepted the robbed truck near Kohat Enclave traffic light but instead of stopping, the robbers started beating the police personnel.

They, however, managed to overpower one of the accused.

Police officials said that a hunt was on to nab the remaining members of the gang.
