Pune Police Foils ATM Robbery, Arrests Gang Members
In Pune, a gang tried to steal money from an ATM but got caught.
The police found them using tools to break into the machine.
These robbers are thought to be the same ones who stole a lot of money from another ATM earlier.
The police found out the gang targeted ATMs that weren't very safe.
Now, the police are also looking at why the banks didn't do more to protect their ATMs and may hold bank officials responsible.
Pune police foiled an ATM robbery attempt on May 26, arresting two suspects.
The suspects, part of a gang, were caught using gas cutters to breach an ATM.
The same gang is believed to be responsible for a March ATM robbery in Pune, stealing Rs 16.8 lakh.
Police investigation revealed the gang targeted ATMs with inadequate security measures.
Bank officials are being charged for 'abetting' crimes by failing to secure ATMs.
