According to him, the suspects were arrested at about 1:00 a.m. on April 30, during a raid in the Corpers lodge area led by the DPO of Maitumbi Division in collaboration with vigilante members following a distress call.

“When we received the distressed call, our patrol team of Operation Flush with vigilante members, led by the DPO rushed to the area and successfully arrested the suspects.

“The suspects were known for thuggery and the use of dangerous weapons to terrorise the residents of the area,” he said.

The CP further said that the suspects have been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) for further investigation, while efforts were ongoing to apprehend other accomplices at large.

Dan-Mamman, however, advised parents and guardians to keep close watch on their wards and caution them against getting involved in crime that would incur the wrath of the law.(NAN)
