At about 1130 hours yesterday, 17/03/06 there was an Armed Robbery Attack at DIAMOND BANK by ITT in OFZ. The group of about ten men wearing military/mopol and civil dressing, armed with AK47 came with a Mini Bus.
They shot sporadically and one Mopol on bank duty and one Security guard were injured. Also one of armed robbers was shot by a Diamond Bank Mopol.
The Armed Robbers succeeded in robbing the Bank of an un-specified amount.
They escaped using Atlas Cement road to reach a waiting speed boat between Atlas Cement and Adamac Jetty.
On their way out they shot at a Dredger wounding one Navy man and one staff.
All indications as per now suggest that they gained access using different means of transport (boat/minibus/trekking). This confirms why they wore different dressings.
All injured persons are receiving treatment and no loss of life reported presently.
