These type of incidences with common man have been happening from years and till date no concrete solution has been worked out for the safety and security of common man on raod. It appears very difficult for the government authorities to find a solution so that security at every point can be provided. Nabbing of the culprits and putting them behind the bars and sentencing a punishment also does not avert these kind of people from committing crimes. This is also out of question that the person will not carry cash or will not wear the jewellery. Even then the person/citizen has to think and take care of the circumstances wherever he is i.e. if it is a lonely place then he can avoid the invitation of criminals by not carrying much cash or wearing jewellery as this is the only way to safeguard ourselves.
