The one suspect instructed the complainant that he must put all the money and airtime in a box before he pushed the complainant to the back office.
Once inside the office, the money that was in the drawer was also placed in the box.
One of the suspects emptied a box, and went inside and took cartons of cigarettes before the two fled.
