Operatives of the FCT police command recently made a significant breakthrough by apprehending two individuals involved in car theft. The arrests led to the recovery of five stolen vehicles and a collection of items believed to be charms. Among the recovered vehicles were a Pontiac Vibe, a Toyota Corolla, and two Honda Accords. These suspects had been evading capture for several months prior to their arrest, making them a priority on the police’s wanted list.
The suspects, identified as Ibrahim Haliru and Babangida Mohammed, were recognized as notorious robbery kingpins responsible for a string of car thefts across FCT and its neighboring areas. Their arrest was the culmination of diligent police work, including digital reconstruction intelligence, which enabled officers to track them down to a hotel in Nasarawa. It was there that they were apprehended while indulging in the spoils of their criminal activities.
