Two women in Baqubah, Iraq, stole thousands of dollars from a money exchange office after hypnotising the manager.
The women managed to steal $4,000 (BD1,507) after getting the manager to relax and surrender his money using new methods of hypnosis, according to local authorities.
The robbery came in the wake of similar crimes by a seemingly organised group dubbed "The Hypnosis Gang" by the local media.
The methods used for hypnosis aren't conventional. They quickly subdue victims and get them to give away their belongings 'willingly'.
The two suspects are still at large.
