Three unidentified men attacked a cashier working with a property dealer and looted Rs 10 lakh from him in Chhattisgarh's capital Raipur on Monday, police said.
The incident took place at an under-construction expressway near the Chunabhatti area under Ganj police station limits at around 1:30 pm, said Anti-Crime and Cyber Unit (ACCU) Inspector Girish Tiwari.
The cashier, a resident of Raipur, was heading towards a bank on a two-wheeler for depositing Rs 10 lakh when the trio waylaid him, snatched the bag containing the cash and escaped from the spot, he said.
The police have launched a manhunt for the robbers, the officer said.
