Two bike-borne youths snatched the gold chain of a 49-year-old woman outside her home in Sector 79 last evening.
The victim, Navreen Kaur, said she was buying vegetables from a vendor near her home around 8.40 pm when two bike-borne youths, who were wearing helmets, snatched her gold chain. She, along with her neighbours, ran after the snatchers, but they sped away.
Navreen said the chain weighed 20 gram. Her family lodged a complaint with the Sohana police, who registered a DDR.
Local residents slammed the police for deteriorating law and order in the area.
A report, which was shared by the Punjab Government in the state Assembly this year, revealed that 55% of the snatching incidents registered in the district remained unsolved.
