Lucknow, Oct. 29 -- Two motorcycle-borne miscreants allegedly sprayed chilli spray into the eyes of an elderly man and snatched part of his gold chain while he was sitting outside his residence in Lucknow's Jawahar Nagar area under Wazirganj police station limits. The incident took place around 5.26 pm on October 26 when Baijnath Prasad Verma was seated outside his home. According to a complaint lodged by his son, Ashish, two men arrived on a motorcycle, stopped near the elderly man and attacked him before he could react. The assailants allegedly sprayed chilli powder into Verma's eyes and yanked the gold chain from his neck. During the struggle, the chain broke, leaving a portion around the victim's neck while the robbers fled with the remaining part. The stolen portion of the chain is estimated to be worth around Rs.2 lakh, the complainant told police. Hearing Verma's cries, family members and residents rushed to the spot and tried to intercept the fleeing suspects, but they managed to escape. htc...
