The police is now examining previous reports of ATM thefts, on the assumption that the attacker might have been a repeat offender. On Thursday, police also announced a Rs 1 lakh reward for information about the untraceable assailant who brutally attacked a woman in an unguarded ATM kiosk here on Tuesday. “We will reward Rs 1 lakh to any person sharing information on the assailant absconding since Tuesday after assaulting bank manager Jyothi Uday in her bank’s ATM kiosk in the city centre,” Bangalore police Commissioner Raghavendra Auradkar told reporters. Reports said the assailant had sold the victim’s mobile handset to a cell recharge shop at Hindupur in Ananthapur district of Andhra Pradesh, about 100 km north of Bangalore. “We learnt from our counterparts in the neighbouring state that the mobile recharge shop owner bought the handset from a person whose identity he did not know. The buyer is being interrogated to ascertain the whereabouts of the attacker,” Auradkar said.
