The source expressed sadness over the death of the security guard, adding that it seems the robbers had help from within.

“It’s a very sad development to all of us here, and most unfortunate is that the security officer who was shot dead by the criminals was not even a staff of newspaper corporation, this cannot happen without an insider’s collaboration,” the source said.
