Thieves in Mumbai dug a 25ft tunnel to rob a government-owned bank.

It is estimated the tunnel took the gang four months to complete. It is believed they stole cash and jewellery, though the price of the haul has not yet been determined.

It is claimed the suspects operated a grocery store as a cover, next to the Bank of Baroda, whilst they dug out the tunnel.

It was discovered on Monday, 13 November, that 30 of the bank's 225 safe deposit boxes were robbed.

The suspects have not been since the incident and have not yet been identified.
