The theft took place in Pankaj Kumar's house at the Parshav Nath Paradise Apartment here last night when the family members were sleeping and the thieves allegedly escaped with ornaments and cash worth around Rs2 lakh.

Thieves might have entered the house from the side window as the house was locked from inside, police said.

It is suspected that the thieves might have used some intoxicating material to make the family members unconscious, they said.
