LUCKNOW: The incident occurred at the Indian Overseas Bank's Chinhat branch, just a few meters from the Chinhat police station outpost, raising serious concerns about local security.

The thieves, according to police, gained entry by cutting a 2.5-foot-wide hole in the wall behind the bank. Once inside, they disabled the bank's alarm system, allowing them to remain undetected for up to two hours. The robbers targeted the lockers, cutting open 30 of them and making off with jewellery worth crores, said police sources. Notably, the exact value of the stolen jewellery has not yet been ascertained.
