A man robbed Kanbawza Bank Branch 37 in Maha Aungmye Township, Mandalay, at 2 pm on February 21 and ran away with over 110 million kyats, a police officer of No. 9 Myanmar Police Force Station in Maha Aungmyay Township confirmed to One News.
 
A man wearing a mask and riding a Super Cup motorbike arrived at the bank. He entered the bank, brandished a gun and ran away with more than 110 million kyats. “We are still pursuing the perpetrator. We have not found him yet. More than 1.1 billion kyats in cash was taken,” the police officer said.
