KARACHI: A robber donning a police-like uniform looted a bakery in Karachi’s NIPA Chowrangi area, ARY News reported on Monday.
In a CCTV footage available with ARY News, the robber can be seen entering the outlet of a chain of bakeries, located near NIPA with a bag on his back and a face mask to hide his identity.
The robber who had looted the fourth outlet of the chain of bakeries, took cash from the counter at gunpoint and fled the spot easily.
The robber has become a challenge for the Karachi police, who has looted four outlets of the bakery in the last few days.
Despite claims of the Sindh government and the police, street crimes continue to rise in Karachi.
