A Meerut businessman carrying Rs 25 lakh in his Thar was robbed by armed men on the Delhi-Meerut Expressway on Friday evening. The gang allegedly stopped his vehicle, threatened him with a pistol and escaped with the cash while traffic continued to pass around them.
The businessman, identified as Gillaman, was travelling from Meerut towards Jafrabad in Delhi with his cousin Samad and relative Saleem. He had left Meerut around 5 pm and reached the Dasna stretch of the expressway about two hours later.
