Ogun State Police Arrest Six, Seize Rifles, Generators and Stolen Phones

Ogun State Police Command carried out intelligence-led raids in Abeokuta, Wasimi and Ibafo. Six suspects were arrested and multiple items recovered. Investigations led officers of the Violent Crime Response Unit and SWAT to seize a pump-action rifle, a locally made pistol, ammunition, five generators and nine Android phones believed stolen. One suspect linked to a generator theft ring guided detectives to two other alleged members and a motorcyclist who ferried stolen goods. In a separate operation, a 58-year-old man was arrested for unlawful arms possession after police found two live cartridges and a rifle. Detectives also disrupted a vehicle-parts theft network in Ibafo, recovering a forklift engine component and tyres. All suspects will face charges when investigations conclude.
