A Lebanese woman, Sali Hafiz, on Wednesday, September 14 held up a bank in Beirut and carted away thousands of dollars.

Hafiz live streamed on Facebook her robbery of a Beirut branch of Blom Bank, in which she could be heard yelling at employees to release a sum of money while entrances to the bank were sealed.
“I am Sali Hafiz, I came today… to take the deposits of my sister who is dying in hospital.
“I did not come to kill anyone or to start a fire… I came to claim my rights,” she said in the video.
The culprit, in an interview with Lebanese broadcaster after the raid, said she walked out of the bank with about $13,000 of the $20,000 which her family had allegedly deposited.

Media outlets said Hafiz confessed that she had used her nephew’s toy pistol for the robbery operation.

Hafiz and suspected accomplices escaped through a smashed window at the back of the bank before security forces arrived, the correspondent said.
Lebanon’s General Security agency dismissed rumours she had fled the country, just as her relatives said she was still on the run.
