Maj Gen Al Mansouri said one of the suspects was a security guard who works for the company that owned the truck.

“We discovered that he managed to unlock the vehicle’s door and steal the money, after which he fled,” he said.

Police said they located the suspect and found that he was part of a six-member gang, all of whom worked for the same company.

“The entire amount was found in their possession,” said Maj Gen Al Mansouri.

The suspects will be referred to prosecutors following the investigations.
