Authorities believe the burglars entered the bank and emptied the safe deposit boxes during the New Year's Eve weekend. The caper wasn't discovered until Monday morning.

阿根廷當局認爲，盜竊犯是在新年前夕鑿入銀行，並利用週末清空這些保險箱，這起盜竊案直到週一銀行營業時才被發現。

The prosecutor said the thieves rented the neighboring building to the bank in June. The tunnel they dug included lighting, ventilation and reinforcement.

檢察官表示，竊賊們去年6月在銀行隔壁租了一棟樓，然後鑿了一條通往銀行的隧道，隧道經過加固，裏面裝有燈光和通風設備。Officials could not tell how much was stolen, since box owners do not have to say what they have secured.

銀行管理人員並未說明盜賊此次盜走物品的總價值是多少，因爲客戶不必告訴銀行方面保險箱裏放了什麼。

Many Argentineans started using safe deposit boxes instead of regular bank accounts following a 2001 financial crisis.

2001年阿根廷發生金融危機後，許多人不再把錢存進銀行，而是把它們放進銀行保管箱裏。
