Police have arrested suspected members of an inter-state car robbery gang after they negotiated to sell a Lexus Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) with registration number Abuja, YAB-214TD for a N700,000 in Minna, Niger State.

Parading the suspects at the Police Command Headquarters yesterday, the state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), ASP Bala Elkana, said the gang members locked their suspect inside the toilet at Mabushi in Abuja and took his wife in the car to an ATM point where they forced her to withdraw N100,000. Elkana said the car was brought into Minna by a man who claimed to be a taxi driver in the FCT, Gideon, while Seidu Mohammed (a mechanic) worked on the car.
