Four armed suspects were neutralised during the operation. Officers recovered a General Purpose Machine Gun with 53 linked rounds, two AK-47 rifles, magazines, 7.62×39mm and 5.56mm ammunition, four undetonated IEDs, police camouflage uniforms and accessories, and a white Toyota Sienna bus. Additional exhibits included mobile phones, a laptop, a POS machine, power banks, assorted charms, ATM cards, a National ID card and a driver’s licence.
