The police didn’t relent in their efforts to apprehend the hoodlums and their efforts paid off on the 12th of December 2019 when intelligence investigation revealed that the hoodlums were hibernating somewhere in Shimawa area.
The DPO and his operatives moved to the area where the three suspects were subsequently apprehended.
Recovered from them are: 12 different types of Android and iPhones as well as wrist watches which the victims later identified as their robbed property.
While investigation was ongoing, the command got information about earlier robbery escapades of the suspects somewhere in Osun state.
Meanwhile, the commissioner of police CP Kenneth Ebrimson has ordered the immediate transfer of the suspects to Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS) for an in depth investigation into their various robbery activities.
The CP also warned that any criminal who choose to come to Ogun state with the intention to perpetrate any form of crime will have him or herself to blame as the command is ready to take the battle to the doorstep of the criminals.
