One chance syndicate apprehended in Ogun

 Operatives of the Violent Crime Response Unit (VCRU), Ogun State Police Command, have arrested two suspected members of a notorious one chance robbery syndicate in Abeokuta.  The suspects identified as Bidemi Tijani, 29, and Olajide Rasaq, 42, were picked up on August 15, following actionable intelligence. According to the command, the syndicate operates by disguising as commercial taxi operators to rob unsuspecting passengers of mobile phones, cash, and other valuables. Acting on the tip-off that members were sighted in a taxi heading toward Ita-Oshin, VCRU operatives gave chase and intercepted the vehicle. Both suspects confessed during interrogation to being active members of the gang terrorizing commuters in the state capital. Efforts are ongoing to apprehend other fleeing members and recover exhibits. The Commissioner of Police, CP Bode Ojajuni, commended the VCRU for their swift and tactical response. He reiterated the Commands resolve to rid Ogun State of criminal elements, warning that there will be no safe haven for perpetrators. CP Ojajuni also urged residents and commuters to remain vigilant and report suspicious activities through Gateway Shield Toll-Free 0800 000 9111 or Emergency Lines 09164859299 | 09154293464.The post One chance syndicate apprehended in Ogun appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
