The robbery, which took place at a branch of Punjab National Bank at Daruha under the jurisdiction of Kamardha police station late last night, came to light on Monday.

According to sources, the dacoits used a gas cutter and cut the main iron shutter of the bank and broke the locks to enter. The incident could not be captured in CCTV installed near the main gate as the miscreants covered it with a cardboard box.
