Lmao! 4- Armed Robbers Break Into A Bank And Receive The Shock Of Their Lives

4- suspected armed rob­bers who were alleged to be members of a gang who broke into a branch of an old generation bank in Ilututu area of Ondo State, on Christmas eve, have said that they were shocked when they opened the bank’s vault and discovered that it was empty.


The suspects identified as Ebibo Winoh, Michael Mipera, Thank­god Sugha and Idowu Sobijoh, who were rounded up last week­end, by operatives of the Inspec­tor General of Police Special In­telligence Response Team (SIRT) in Ondo State, were said to have broken into the bank through the aid of a security guard, who had worked with the bank. 

It was gathered that the guard, who was sacked last year, was said to have approached a mem­ber of the gang, Michael Mipera, a native of Ajapa in Ese-Odo Local Government Area of Ondo State, with the idea of robbing the bank, as there was less se­curity around the bank at night.

Police investigation disclosed that Mipera, after conducting his own survey around the bank, invit­ed two of his friends, Thankgod Sugha and Ebibo Winoh, from his hometown to Ilututu and rented an apartment for them. He was also said to have invited six militants based at a camp in Ijegemo-Ish­eri Oshun, Lagos State, head­ed by one TK, a notorious of pipeline vandal and bank robber. Their other members from Lagos, which was led by one Bright, was said to have supplied the gang with two AK 47 rifles and addi­tional expertise on how to break into bank.

On their arrest,  police source said that a day after the incident, the Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase, had re­ceived an intelligence report on the gang’s activities and he deployed operatives of the SIRT, headed by CSP Abba Kyari to Ondo State, to track and apprehend the suspects. Four of the suspects were arrested in Ondo while the fifth suspect, a militant was picked up in Lagos.

At the police station during interrogation, the suspected leader of the gang, "

Micheal said that they monitored the bank for weeks be­fore they struck. “After the bank’s former security man gave us infor­mation, we rented a room close to the police station in the communi­ty. We found a petty job, as a form of distraction while we monitored the activities of the police and that of the bank.

 We discovered that at night, there is no private security official or policeman guarding the bank. We also discovered that the police station was not active and cannot easily withstand us if we are heavily armed.

As soon as the experts from Ikorodu arrived, we agreed to strike on Christmas eve because everyone is supposed to be busy preparing for Christmas.

“We entered the bank easily and broke into the vault. We got the shock of our lives when we discov­ered that it was empty. It was when we understood why there was no security man in the bank. Our mat­ter got worse when we were ar­rested the next day by policemen. I am begging for mercy because we did not succeed.There is no money to return rather we are looking for how to raise money to pay back those we hired from Lagos.
