Patna, Dec 9: In a shocking incident, six men disguised as policemen barged into the residence of government school teacher Sanjeev Kumar on Monday morning and looted jewellery worth nearly Rs 15 lakh.

According to police sources, the robbers arrived at Kumar’s house in Telwa Bazaar posing as law enforcement officers conducting a routine check. Once inside, they overpowered the family members and ransacked the premises.
