The police is investigating the fingerprints, found from the crime scene and the videos of the CCTV cameras of the nearby banks were also being checked to help in the arrest of the suspects.

While talking to media, Edhi said the robbers woke him up and rushed straight to the cupboard where the money and gold was kept. He expressed his grief over the robbery, saying that he has been deprived of some valuables that belonged to other people.

Taking notice of the robbery, Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah has directed police to bring the culprits to book.
