Driver of ATM cash van flees with 22.5 cr
The driver of a cash-in-transit van carrying Rs 22.5 crore meant to be deposited in Axis Bank ATMs in southeast Delhi allegedly drove off with the money on Thursday when the gunman deployed with him took a loo break.
New Delhi: The driver of a cash-in-transit van carrying Rs 22.5 crore meant to be deposited in Axis Bank ATMs in southeast Delhi allegedly drove off with the money on Thursday when the gunman deployed with him took a loo break.
One of the biggest cash thefts reported in Delhi, the crime took place when the guard of the SIS security agency van asked the driver to stop near Govindpuri.
The driver told the guard stopping the vehicle would cause a traffic jam, adding he would take a U-turn and return to the spot, according to the police.
“Gunman Patel claims that when he came back on the road, the van was not there. He waited for 10-15 minutes, assuming that the cash van must have been caught in traffic but that was not to be. When he realised that the driver had fled, he called the bank. It was then that we were informed,” a police official said .
