The FCT Police Command on Saturday 6th February, 2021 acting on credible intelligence, arrested six suspected kidnappers along Apo axis. The suspects are: Frank Ozor 26 years, Nweke Uche 19 years, Chester Uzor 25 years, Chukwu Bethrand 27 years, Chukwu Samuel, 25 years and Kelechi Ngene 26 years all male.
In a press release signed by the FCT Police Command Public Relations Officer, ASP Yusuf Mariam, she said that the suspects who had earlier abducted three persons were arrested by eagle-eyed Police Operatives on routine patrol while attempting to relocate one of their victims. Further investigation led to the successful rescue of two other victims who identified the suspects.
Consequently, the Command has deployed covert and overt crime-fighting strategies to strengthen security across the Federal Capital Territory especially areas with cumbersome terrain. In addition, the Command has launched a strategic counter-kidnapping operation to checkmate the emerging security concerns.
The Spokesperson furthermore said that the Command is working closely with sister security agencies, key stakeholders and community leaders to rid the FCT of criminal elements.
While urging residents to remain calm and law-abiding, the Command enjoins FCT residents to report any suspicious persons or activities around their vicinity at the nearest Police Division.
