The Enugu State Police Command says it has arrested seven
suspects, including a former councillor, for alleged criminal activities within
Enugu metropolis.
A statement issued by the state’s Police Public Relations
Officer, DSP Daniel Ndukwe said the police recovered six firearms, 16 live
cartridges, and a snatched motor vehicle from the six suspects.
The PPRO stated that police operatives serving in the Abakpa
Police Division, in collaboration with the Neighbourhood Watch Group, on
December 6, arrested the former lawmaker, Henry Agbo Ogbonna and six others.
He said the former lawmaker represented Ikiriki Ward 6,
Enugu South Local Government Area.
“The suspect and cohorts, who escaped, had attacked their
male victim, dispossessed him of his phones and snatched his Toyota Camry car
in the process,” he said.
He disclosed that they were on the verge of escaping when
police operatives swooped on them, arrested the suspect, and recovered one
locally-made double-barreled pistol and the vehicle.
