A gang of robbers looted over Rs 3 million from a private bank in Gulshan-e-Iqbal on Friday and made a clean getaway. Five armed men entered the branch of a private bank at Times Square in the Gulshan-e-Iqbal area and walked off with more than Rs 3.26 million, officials said.
It is for the second time in this month that robbers have successfully struck a private bank. Police officials said that the footage of closed-circuit television cameras installed inside the branch showed that five men entered the facility while their accomplice remained outside the gate of the bank.
They said that the footage acquired through the CCTV cameras clearly shows the faces of the robbers. An FIR has been lodged and some of employees of the bank are also being interrogated, the police added.
