The suspects were paraded on Wednesday by the police spokesman, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi.
Officers from the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Intelligence Response Team (IRT) and Special Tactical Squad (STS) have apprehended a suspected notorious arms manufacturer and the leader of Abuja's most wanted female-dominated 'one-chance' cartel.
Following an intelligence received by the operatives of the FID-IRT on January 16, on the activities of one-chance operators at the Gwagwalada, Area 1, AYA, Giri and Wuse axis of the FCT, the operatives swung into action and immediately traced the activities of these criminals, which eventually led to their arrest on February 19, at their hideout located at Karimo, FCT.
The suspects were paraded on Wednesday by the police spokesman, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi.
According to Adejobi: “Upon their arrest and consequent interrogation, the suspects confessed to being specialised in carrying out “one-chance” operations and have been running it for over a year”.
The arrested prime suspects are one Sunday Ekwo, 35, and Linola Angel Agabi, 27. Recovered from them is a POS Machine, which they reportedly used to fleece their victim’s account and one Mazda Saloon car with Reg No. KUJ887BQ, which they used for their illicit operations.
