The Special Investigation Unit (SIU) of Sindh police and the Crime Investigation Agency (CIA) have initiated a joint operation against criminals involved in cash robberies outside banks in Karachi. As part of the crackdown, four suspects were arrested on Jahangir Road, and four pistols and two motorcycles were seized from their possession.
According to the SSP Special Investigation Unit, the arrested suspects have confessed to robbing people withdrawing cash from banks in various areas of Karachi, including Shahrah-e-Faisal, Jamshed Quarter, Gulshan-e-Iqbal, Hassan Square, and Soldier Bazaar. They also attempted to rob a woman coming out of a bank in Baitul Muqaddas.
“The woman’s resistance and the intervention of bystanders forced the suspects to flee,” the statement said.
Meanwhile, a senior journalist in Karachi was also robbed of his money by unidentified gunmen while he was withdrawing cash from an ATM.
