Police are unsure whether the thieves had hid in the carriage or cut their way into the train while it was moving. The theft was only discovered when the train reached its destination. The news has been prominently covered by Indian media, with some calling it "the great train robbery". Police say they believe that a group of six to eight robbers may have been involved in the heist, which took place between Monday night and Tuesday morning during the train's 350km-long (217 miles) journey from Salem town to Chennai (Madras). The coach was carrying 3.4bn rupees ($51m) - and security personnel guarding the money were sat nearby, in the neighbouring compartment. The notes belonged to India's central bank, Reserve Bank of India. But on arrival, when officials broke the seal on the carriage, they found chests broken open and a hole cut in the train's metal roof. - Reference 🤍🤍newindianexpress.com/nation/2018/oct/14/after-two-years-two-arrested-in-salemtrain-heist-case-1885259.html 🤍🤍thehindu.com/news/cities/chennai/train-robbers-claim-they-burnt-2-crore-in-cash/article25465385.ece 🤍🤍indiastudychannel.com/forum/161978-A-great-train-robbery-resolved-finally.aspx - Additional Music Help us to make more videos by joining the channel : 🤍🤍youtube.com/channel/UCZcPrTIT-wTAmmAeVI5j4nA/join - If you like the Video Please Do Like ,Subscribe and Share.
