In the case of the robbery of lakhs of rupees from 2 petrol pumps in the Sasan and Sadar police station area, the criminal has not been caught to date. Several miscreants attempted to rob an ATM near Sadar police station Dhankuada. They were caught on CCTV, but did not come to the hands of Sambalpur police till today Sambalpur police is failing to catch criminals who are committing crimes from outside. Some of the city’s hotels are also rumored to be responsible for protecting outside criminals. There are many hotels in Sambalpur where only money is seen. Rooms are easily found in many hotels without an ID card or registration information. Hotel owners and employees are benefiting from this but there is a risk of increasing criminal activities in the city. It is very difficult to track people’s data because they are not kept in the hotel for the sake of hacking and fraud. The intellectuals have expressed their opinion that such criminals can be found if the police check the hotels properly.
