He said the vehicles were impounded by the newly created ‘Anti-One Chance Squad’ of the command to curb the menace of “one chance” activities within the FCT. According to him, most of the vehicles impounded had tinted glasses, and during searches, axes, cutlasses, and knives, ostensibly for use in carrying out their criminal activities, were recovered from the vehicles. He said the three suspects who were arrested in connection with the seizure of the vehicles were currently under investigation.
The suspects were arrested following a distress call about some strange and suspicious movements around the Zuba fruit market. “Police operatives from Zuba Division swiftly mobilised to the scene and arrested a suspect, who, upon sighting the police operatives, took to his heels. He was given a hot chase and apprehended by police operatives. “During interrogation, the suspect confessed to being a member of a five-man gang and later led the police operatives to arrest two of his gang members.
