Press Release
The Police Administration wishes to announce for the information of the general public that criminals have adopted a new method of robbing people who go to the banks to transact business.
The perpetrators dress like staff of the banks and pretend to assist customers to go through the requisite processes in the banking hall, including filling of forms, counting of money, receiving of deposit etc. In doing this they hoodwink customers to hand their money to them with the pretext of depositing it in their accounts for them, and run away with them through special exists.
Such criminals invariably introduce themselves to inquisitive staff and other officials of the banks as newly recruited staff.
The Police Administration is therefore calling on the general public and managers of financial institutions to be wary of such characters within their banking premises.
