Karachi (HRNW): <\/strong>A young man was killed during a robbery outside a bank in Clifton, Karachi<\/strong>, after armed robbers opened fire and escaped with Rs2.5 million<\/strong> from a total of Rs5 million<\/strong> that had been withdrawn from a bank.<\/p>\n

According to Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) South Mahzoor Ali<\/strong>, the victim, identified as Akash<\/strong>, along with his father and an associate, had withdrawn Rs5 million<\/strong> from a private bank near Teen Talwar<\/strong>. The group later arrived outside another bank in the Boat Basin<\/strong> area to deposit the money when armed assailants attacked their vehicle.<\/p>\n

Police said a security guard at the bank opened fire in an attempt to stop the robbers, who allegedly returned fire. During the exchange of gunfire, Akash sustained critical injuries and later died.<\/p>\n

Authorities stated that the suspects fled the scene with one bag containing Rs2.5 million<\/strong>, while the remaining money was not taken. Police have launched an investigation, collected evidence from the crime scene, and are reviewing CCTV footage from nearby cameras to identify and apprehend the perpetrators.<\/p>\n

The incident has renewed concerns over public safety and security around financial institutions. Citizens and public safety experts have urged authorities to strengthen security measures at banks and improve protection for individuals transporting large sums of cash.<\/p>\n
