After four robbers on two motorcycles had arrived at a private bank in Gulberg area of Karachi, one of the guards had felt suspicion and intercepted them at the doorstep of the bank, whereas the other guard had swiftly locked the front door from inside.
The dacoits had shot and injured both the guards but failed to rob the bank. They, however, had successfully managed to flee from the scene.
