The state Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Celetina Kalu, said the suspects robbed the victim opposite the defunct Textile Mill in Asaba before escaping to their hideout. She said: “Based on the incident, detectives swung into action and arrested the suspects.
The architect of the crime and the insider that provided the information on the stolen money are now in custody.” Kalu disclosed that the suspects had confessed to the crime and mentioned one Dumebi Onwuegbuzia, 25, who allegedly provided the locallymade cut-to-size gun used during the operation.
“However, the said Dumebi, who was paid N30,000 after the robbery, who has been at large and on our wanted list was arrested by operatives of the State Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) in Asaba,” she added. According to Kalu, further investigations later revealed that Dumebi runs a Vikings confraternity and has initiated many boys into the dreaded cult group within Asaba metropolis.http://newtelegraphonline.com/man-leads-gang-to-rob-brother-of-n2-3m/
