LUCKNOW:
The owner of Meena Gun House, Sayeed, whose shop situated at Kaiserbagh market
is feared to have been plundered, failed to take a look into his shop even on
Sunday - two days after his shop was targeted allegedly by rioters.
His attempts to find out what
had exactly happened, proved futile after district magistrate (DM) RN Tripathi
directed Sayeed to keep off from site for a few more
days.
"If the information from
my well-wishers is correct, my entire store has been robbed by rioters in what
is supposed to be a well-planned move to do away with the brand new weapons
which were available at my store," Sayeed said talking to TOI on phone on Sunday
evening.
On Saturday, Sayeed
met the DM seeking security for his family, himself and his store. Thereafter,
on his request, police escorted him to his store where he found a portion of the
steel shutter smashed and the channel gate inside also broken.
