The amount belonged to GNRC Hospital in North Guwahati, and the amount was robbed when hospital employees were on their way to deposit the same in the bank on August 18, 2020.

Another incident of daylight robbery took place in Guwahati this year. In a sensational robbery case, two bike-borne miscreants looted Rs 35 lakh in Guwahati's Fatasil area.
