In the high-stakes world of cash logistics, a moment of oversight can lead to chaos. But with cutting-edge technology like Pariskq’s visibility platform and IoT devices, even opportunistic crimes can be thwarted in real time. We’re excited to share another success story from Gandhidham, demonstrating how our solutions turn potential disasters into quick recoveries.
The Incident: A Morning Heist on the Highway
On January 12, 2024, in Gandhidham, a routine ATM cash-filling operation turned into a nightmare around 9 AM. The cash van team—comprising the driver, two custodians, and an armed guard—deviated from standard operating procedures (SOPs) by leaving the vehicle unattended with the keys still inside. Seizing the opportunity, a masked man swiftly entered the van and drove off, hijacking it right under their noses.
This brazen act highlighted a critical vulnerability: human error in following protocols can create openings for theft. The van, loaded with cash destined for ATMs, was now speeding away on the highway, putting valuable assets at immediate risk in a busy industrial hub like Gandhidham.
Pariskq’s Technology in Action: High-Speed Chase and Recovery
Fortunately, the cash van was equipped with Pariskq’s advanced visibility platform and IoT devices, which sprang into action the moment the hijacking occurred. After receiving a panic alert from the customer, our team quickly mobilized to track and recover the vehicle.
- Instant Panic Response and Tracking: The integrated panic button system sent an immediate alert, while our GPS-enabled IoT devices provided real-time location data. This allowed us to pinpoint the van’s movements as it fled along the highway.
- AI Camera Live Streaming: Our AI-powered camera system delivered live video feeds, giving the pursuit team eyes on the situation. This not only confirmed the hijacker’s actions but also guided authorities during the chase.
The recovery unfolded dramatically over a 20 km highway pursuit. As the chase intensified, the robber became aware of the closing net—thanks to the relentless tracking and live updates—and abandoned the vehicle to escape on foot. The cash van was retrieved intact, with all contents secure, preventing what could have been a significant loss.
