In yet another incident of snatching, a 51-year-old senior Air Force official was allegedly robbed of his mobile phone on Thursday morning in New Delhi's Connaught Place area, police said.
The incident took place at around 6 am, they said.
In his complaint, the victim said he was cycling at Connaught Place in the morning when two unidentified motorcycle-borne people, in their 20s, snatched his pouch which contained a One Plus 6 mobile phone and Rs 200.
The miscreants then sped off using the radial road, the police said.
A case has been registered under section 379 (punishment for theft) of the IPC and police are analysing CCTV footage to nab the accused, a senior police officer said.
Earlier on Wednesday, a 32-year-old journalist working with a leading English language daily was allegedly robbed of his mobile phone by an unidentified man in east Delhi's New Ashok Nagar.
