“The intruder then pushed her to her bedroom and told her not to be scared as he was not planning to rape her. He then tied her hands behind her back, and put a cloth in her mouth. After this, he ransacked her house and took jewellery, cellphones and electrical appliances and fled the scene. The total value of the items taken is unknown.”
