Gelsenkirchen Robbery Victims Demonstrate, Item Returns Begin
Customers of Sparkasse Gelsenkirchen-Buer are receiving their first items back today, nearly half a year after a robbery where most of the loot remains missing. Many customers find the process too slow, leading approximately 500 people to protest yesterday in front of the bank. More than four months after a savings bank robbery in Gelsenkirchen that occurred after Christmas, the bank is attempting to return items scattered in the safe deposit box room to customers. Over 100 million euros were likely stolen in the incident. Today, the first items are being handed over to customers, following a demonstration by victims yesterday in front of the Sparkasse. Police are investigating the robbery but have released few details.
