A Lebanese woman, Sali Hafez robbed a bank with a toy gun in Beirut for her sister suffering from cancer.
Why did she rob the bank?
Due to the recent economic turmoil in Lebanon, the bank is refusing to return the deposits made by individuals in their own bank accounts.
Sali Hafez needed $13,000 for the treatment of her sister suffering from cancer while the bank was allowing her to withdraw only $200 a month.
