Burka-wearing gunman dresses as woman to rob bank with £7 toy gun before fleeing with cash in handbag

A man robbed a bank with a toy gun while dressed as a woman and even walked out with the cash in a handbag.



The armed robber was caught on CCTV wearing a burka so his face was covered as he held up a branch of Gulf Bank in Kuwait.



The suspect was arrested shortly after the incident, with police recovering some of the cash and found the discarded women's clothing.



The man, who has not been named, was from Jordan and has reportedly confessed to the bizarre robbery.



According to local media, the suspect studied the Gulf Bank branch for one month before entering as a Muslim woman with the intention of robbing it.
