The incident took place around 9:30 pm when a luxury bus travelling from Varanasi to Delhi made a brief stop at Jaiswal Dhaba.
Bhavesh, a cumin trader from Gujarat’s Patan district, was targeted by the robbers as he stepped off the bus.
According to eyewitnesses, within moments of grabbing the bags, the miscreants fled on a bike, dropping one bag mid-way.
The scattered cash drew a crowd that rushed to collect the notes, creating further confusion at the scene.
According to Bhavesh, the bags contained several lakhs of rupees, but only Rs 4–5 lakh could be recovered after the mob looted the scattered cash.
Upon receiving information, Kokhraj police reached the spot and began questioning the trader.
Inspector CB Maurya said efforts are underway to determine the exact amount looted, and the CCTV footage is being examined to identify the culprits.
Police launched a search operation and sealed the area, but no trace of the miscreants had been found as of late Thursday night.
