DavidEsq: O boy, i know no tell you say i be lawyer, i read the salami vs savannah bank, na different case but occupier liability seem to give a clue, it also reminds me of the offa robbery. when there is robbery, there will be bodily harm The common law imposes a duty of care on occupiers towards four categories of persons, namely, those who enter the premises in pursuance of a contract with the occupier, an invitee, such as a customer who comes window shopping at the premises, a licensee who comes into the premises with the occupier’s implied or express warranty, and trespassers who come upon or remain on premises without the occupier’s permission or authority. In Samson Ugochukwu v. Unipetrol (Nig) Plc, the Supreme Court held that an injured visitor must prove that he was either a licensee or invitee to the premises in order to establish liability against an occupier. In this case, the plaintiff/appellant went to buy fuel at the defendant’s Marina filling station. While waiting to buy fuel, there was an explosion which injured him on the face, neck, legs and upper limbs. He sued the defendant for damages and also relied on the doctrine of res ipsa loquitur as well as section 7(3)(a) of the Lagos State Law Reform (Torts) Law of 1994 which provides:The rule so enacted in relation to an occupier of premises and his visitors shall also apply, in like manner and to the like extent as the principles applicable at common law too an occupier of premises and his invitees or licensee would apply, to regulate the obligations of a person occupying or having control over any fixed or movable structure, including any vessel, vehicle or craft. In his evidence, the plaintiff did not specify whether he was either an invitee or licensee to defendant’s petrol station. He simply stated that he was a lawful visitor to the defendant’s premises at the material time. Dismissing the plaintiff’s claim, the court held that he was unable to prove that he was either an invitee or a licensee. |

Apart from bank branches in remote areas, or areas where police or military reenforcement will take longer time or has been compromised, robbers that go to banks work with time. Their focus is on the vault cash and not customers except they sighted huge sum of money in the custody of a customer. In response to the OP's question, the bank will only take responsibility if there are documentary evidence /record of cash payment I.e 1) If the cash has been posted on the bank's computer 2) If the cash was received by the cashier and a deposit slip stamped by the bank was issued to the customer 3) If there are details of the cash deposit transaction entered on the cash deposit register by either the customer or the cashier, even if it's yet to be posted Note that the armed robbers could have destroyed the DVR, thereby destroying the. backed up CCTV recordings except the bank has realtime/centralized archiving or CCTV recordings of all branches in head office which is costly and expensive to maintain Even if the CCTV was not destroyed by the robbers. The bank can destroy the CCTV footage and claim that it was destroyed by the robbers Aside numbers 1-3 above, the bank is not liable to the customer. 1 Like |

Am a banker and this is how it works.... If the customer with the money hasn't paid in yet(ie, he or she hasn't given the cashier the money) and an inccident of a robbery occur. My brother and sister, your money is gone but if he or she has done the vise vicer then the bank will have no choice than to pay u back the money... Note.... You can not lie that you have paid the money but teller or the cashier hasn't input the transaction because the CCTV camera will be played again and again just to make sure no one is using the robbery as a means to loot the bank. That's why all banks has at least 3+ cctv camera facing the customer and and Cashier. |

Re: What Happens To My Money If I'm Robbed In A Bank While Waiting To Deposit? by Lacisa: 11:18pm On Jan 20, 2019 |
wetdick: In the case u mentioned, the explosion could be prevented if the occupier (filling station) wants to go the extra mile. Also the root of the explosion (fuel etc) is owned by the filling station, so the court could have awarded compensation if the man was able to proof his case. In the robbery case as stated by the OP, the bank cannot completely protect itself not to talk of the customers. The court knows the law is subjective depending on the scenario |

Lacisa: i think it is almost similar, also a case of armed robbery can be prevented if proper security measures are meet by the bank. occupier liability imposes a duty of care on occupiers to those who enter the premises in pursuance of a contract with the occupier. as a person who owns a bank account with a bank, i think, it also means i have a contract with the bank and must obey their rules and regulation or my contract with them will be terminated and my account closed. |

ChelseaDotCom:/ You eat the loss. There is no record to prove any deposit from you. Banks' operations are based on numbers: recorded credits and debits. If you pursue it vigorously, be ready to exonerate yourself from the robbery. The Nigerian Police may like to find ways to rope you in as a suspect. / 1 Like |

wetdick: They are completely different. Duty of care issues I have seen are mainly health hazards and not robbery. Armed robbery cannot be completely prevented by any institution, including police stations and even army barracks as seen in Borno state where Boko haram invaded. Besides, CBN stated that the customer is responsible for the protection of his or her assets in the banking premises. See the link below https://www.cbn.gov.ng/Supervision/cpdconedu.asp |

ChelseaDotCom:. It becomes the banks responsibility to pay you back that money. They ought to have secured you and your money once you are inside the banking hall. Check ethics and principles of banking. |
