The two, who were on board the company’s vehicle, had arrived at the vault as scheduled but left without police escort.

Police said the escort came to realize the vehicle with the money was missing minutes after it had left with the cash.

The said motor vehicle was found dumped at Dafam area South C, next to the southern bypass, without the suspects and the money missing.

Senior police officers visited the scene and established the two escaped aboard a waiting car.

Teams of security personnel were mobilized to pursue the two but reported they had escaped to unknown destination.

Police say the incident is new for now and seems to be an inside job.
