The Imo Police Command has arrested six suspects allegedly involved in kidnapping and armed robbery.
According to a statement on Thursday evening by ASP Okoye Henry, Police Public Relations Officer, the command’s anti-kidnapping unit rescued a 26-year-old woman kidnapped from her Obinze residence on August 18.
The suspects include: Umaru Usman(40), Tukur Yau(25), Musbau Sabo,(18), Abdul Ibrahim(30), and Jubrin Idris (25) in a forest hideout in Avu, recovering a pump-action gun, cartridges, dagger and criminal charms.
The suspects, members of a notorious kidnapping syndicate, terrorised residents in Obinze, Avu, and surrounding areas.
In a separate operation, the command apprehended Nwauba Alex, a 25-year-old armed robbery suspect, recovering a locally made pistol and live ammunition.
Commissioner of Police, CP Aboki Danjuma, commended the operatives and urged them to continue reducing crime in the state.
