The thieves took the battery from Jadhav’s mobile while leaving the place. They locked the house from the outside and broke the light wire of the house and escaped. The elderly couple could not do anything due to the lock from outside, they were shouting throughout the night but no one heard any sound as there was no other house nearby.
