Gayatri said she could not see the faces of the looters as they had covered those with towels. Besides, they were speaking to her in Bihari Hindi, she added.
On being informed, police along with forensic team went to the house and started investigation. They have also taken the video footage from the CCTV cameras installed in the area. Though the footage reveals movement of the alleged looters, they could not be identified as their faces were covered.
Bhubaneswar DCP Prateek Singh said they were trying to identify the miscreants and have launched a manhunt to nab them.
