NAUSHAHRO FEROZE, Dec 21: Mind boggling innovative techniques have no parallel when applied for gaining ulterior motives.

Robbers in this urban town deprived the United Bank's Halani branch of Rs4.353 million on Wednesday when Bank's security guard, police constable Bashir Malik was summoned by writer head constable Akbar Junejo to Halani police station.

Robbers, after overpowering the private security guard, took away Rs4.353 million from the counter and strong room.

An official at the police station said that an FIR had been registered on the complaint of branch manager against six unidentified bandits.
