Chhatarpur (Madhya Pradesh): Two bikers made off with Rs 7 lakh kept in the dickey of a two-wheeler parked on the district hospital premises.
The money belonged to a 60-year-old man Raghuwar Prasad Soni, who lives near the district hospital. The police are trying to collar the culprits through CCTV footage, official sources said on Tuesday.
