However, the ATM was closed after some time. The incident occurred on account of erroneous loading of currency notes by an agency to which the task was outsourced, the bank said.

“Neither the bank nor its customers will be required to bear any loss as a result of this incident,” the spokesperson said.

However, the bank did not divulge details about how much extra money was delivered by the ATM machine and how it would be recovered.
