POLICE ARREST 5 NOTORIOUS SUSPECTS OPERATING IN KATSINA AND OTHER STATES
Police in Zamfara State have arrested five notorious suspects involved in banditry, kidnapping, cattle rustling, and illegal possession of firearms.
They were paraded by the Police Public Relations Officer in Zamfara, Shehu Mohammed, on Friday at the Police Headquarters in Gusau, the state capital.
He explained that the arrest of the suspects was a result of the collaboration between the police and the state leadership of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN).
Mohammed stated that the command would continue to work with any group or persons willing to work for the peace of Zamfara and the north-west region.
A screengrab taken on May 14, 2021, shows the foreigner and four other suspects arrested by the police in Zamfara State.
Those arrested were said to have been terrorising various communities in Zamfara, Kaduna, Katsina States in the North West, and Niger State in the north-central part of the country.
Items recovered from the suspects included four AK-49 rifles, nine magazines, 960 live ammunition, and assorted charms.
