Kwabena Kissi, 40, is accused of using an old G4S security uniform to trick bank staff into handing over cash during a robbery at a Santander bank in Brixton, south London. Court footage shown publicly depicts Kissi entering the bank on 5 July 2022 carrying a large security-style briefcase. Prosecutors say the alleged deception led to staff giving him £117,000. The reporting also states that Kissi later flees to Ghana after the incident.
These accounts describe the case as involving impersonation using a former security uniform, and they focus on the evidence presented in court, including video footage of the suspect’s entry into the branch. While the outlets describe the alleged amount taken and the subsequent departure, the provided material does not include details on Kissi’s response in court, the specific charges filed, or the full circumstances surrounding how the exchange with staff occurred. The case is therefore characterized here by the alleged method, location, date, and cash amount referenced in the coverage.
