Four men allegedly made off with an automated teller machine (ATM), containing Rs 3.5 lakh, from an unguarded kiosk in southwest Delhi's Bindapur last night, the police said today.
The miscreants took the machine away in a tempo, they added.
In a similar case last month, miscreants had made off with an ATM containing Rs 31 lakh at Chhawla. Earlier this month, an unsuccessful attempt was made to steal an ATM at Bijwasan village.
The police suspect the involvement of the same gang in all these cases.
Last night, between 2 am and 2.30 am, four men allegedly made off with a Bank Of Baroda ATM at Bindapur, the police said, adding that the machine was loosely attached to the ground.
The digital video recorder of the kiosk's CCTV cameras was installed inside the ATM. The police do not have a clear footage of the accused, who had not even covered their faces.
The footage, obtained from a nearby shop, shows the four men entering the kiosk and fleeing with the ATM in a tempo.
The ATM did not have a security guard and it is suspected that the accused were aware of it, the police said.
