After brandishing a knife, the looter gagged Samiya and opened the door to let his accomplice in.

The woman told the police that the two later dumped her in the bathroom and locked the door from outside, before escaping with the cash.

Samiya later alerted her husband, who had gone out for some official work, the sources added.
