Niranjan and his wife were asleep on the ground floor of the house when the incident took place.

Police suspect the anti-socials scaled the boundary wall of Niranjan's compound and entered his house by forcibly opening one of the glass windows. The CCTV footage showed a man taking the stairs to reach the second floor after breaking into the house. He had masked his face in a bid to avoid getting identified. Though initial probe suggested the involvement of only one anti-social, police are verifying further details.
