Bhubaneswar, 7 February (H.S.): In a daylight robbery, unidentified assailants snatched Rs 2.55 lakh from a man in the Infocity area of Bhubaneswar today.

The victim, Sisir Mohapatra, an employee of a security agency, had withdrawn the money from the Infocity branch of the State Bank of India (SBI) to pay his child's college fees. After withdrawing the cash, he was on his way to his office when the incident occurred.
