Pablo and his comrades bored a tunnel from a block which was meters away from the bank in a building that
was supposedly being used to run artificial grass business registered
under Sergio’s name. “A guy called Paulo Sergio turned up in a van and
the place stayed closed for 15 days.
The shocking part, though, was that the thieves carried out the theft undetected and without triggering any of the bank’s alarm security systems!
The gang dug an 80m tunnel, fitted it with wood panels and installed
electric lighting and rudimentary air-conditioning; their final
engineering feat had been to drill through a metre of steel-reinforced
concrete, accomplishing their aim clinically without attracting even a
whiff of attention for three months.
At last they got into the bank which is equivalent of Kenya’s Central Bank and successfully made away with Sh6 billion.
