New Delhi, July 15 (SocialNews.XYZ) In a botched-up robbery attempt by unidentified thieves, bundles of Rs 500 notes, stored in a SBI ATM were burnt while the thieves tried to cut through the cash-vending machine in Maharashtra.

The incident occurred around 4:40 a.m. on Monday. CCTV footage shows unidentified individuals breaking the shutter's lock to enter the ATM.
The intense heat generated due to the use of machines resulted in ATM catching fire, leading to the torching of Rs 500 currency notes.
