On March 25, some goons came to my house and threatened to kill me and also flashed their knives and guns. They asked me to bring out all the cash and gold that I kept in my house. I called the police but they asked me to compromise. I also approached the DCP, Outer Delhi, Chaya Sharma but she too made the same suggestion," he alleged in his complaint with the Special Cell of Delhi police.
