Balasore: Unidentified miscreants looted Rs 36 lakh from two ATMs in Balasore district late on Friday.
According to information, the robbers made away with Rs 26 lakh from one ATM kiosk at Sunhaat and Rs 10 lakh from another State Bank of India (SBI) ATM installed at ITI Square. Both the machines were set on fire after the loot.
The matter came to the fore after some locals saw the ATMs gutted and alerted police regarding the same.
“It seems that the miscreants have used gas cutters to break open the ATMs and decamped with the money. Special police teams have been formed to nab the robbers,” Balasore SP B Jugal Kishore informed.
Meanwhile, a team of forensic experts reached the spot and collected evidence from the spot.
