Two rob man speaking on mobile

Two Asian men were caught on camera expertly robbing  a man in a public place in Saudi Arabia while he was speaking on his mobile phone.

A YouTube film posted on social networks showed one of them deliberately banged into the man in front of a shop in the eastern port of Dammam and pulled a blue bag before handing it to his friend standing behind the victim.

Newspapers said the bag contained SR7,000 (Dh7,000) and that the victim realised only later that he was robbed. They said the two apparently knew the man, also Asian, was carrying money in the bag.
