The robbers pounced on the couple as they were preparing supper and demanded cash after tying the two’s hands and legs while beating them with logs demanding money.
They got $215 cash from the couple and loaded some goods in the couple’s Hyundai truck ABO 2676 and drove away into the night after leaving the house upside down looking for money.
A well-wisher untied the two and took them to Murambinda Hospital as passed through the police station where they made a report.
