The Police has arrested a suspect for allegedly serving as \u201cerrand boy\u201d to some bandits in the Northeast and North-Central parts of the country.<\/div>\n
\n
\nForce Public Relations Officer, Frank Mba disclosed this at a media briefing in Abuja.<\/p>\n

He said the suspect was arrested on Nov. 10 in Saminaka, in Kaduna State while conveying 250 rounds of live ammunition and five AK-47 magazines to some bandits in Niger State.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe suspect works with some bandits and his task is to ferry weapons from suppliers to the bandits.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe operates with a Volkswagen Golf 3 Salon car, bought for him by one of the bandits with agreement that he will take ownership of the car upon delivery for weapons five times,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mr Mba said efforts were being intensified by operatives to arrest all suspects in connection with the deal.<\/p>\n

He said six suspected members of a car robbery gang had also been arrested by operatives of the Police Special Tactical Squad, STS.<\/p>\n

According to him, the suspects work in a coordinated manner, steal cars from different parts of Nigeria and smuggle them to Niger Republic.<\/p>\n

He said the gang has a standby buyer in Niger Republic who works on the cars, if necessary and maintain them for more economic value before sending them back to Nigeria for sale.<\/p>\n

He added that the car buyer in Niger Republic is also, a dealer in weapons and so, pay for the cars either in cash or exchange them with weapons.<\/p>\n

According to him, the Nigeria Police is working with the INTERPOL to ensure the arrest of the suspect in Niger Republic.<\/p>\n

He said the suspects were among the 32 suspects arrested by the police over banditry, homicide, unlawful possession of weapons, trafficking in drugs and other heinous crimes.<\/p>\n

He said 19 AK-47 riffles, three revolver pistols, two G-3 rifles, one sub-machine gun, one general-purpose machine gun and different types of knives were recovered from the suspects.<\/p>\n

Mr Mba added that other items recovered from the suspects were 17 vehicles of different types and a total of 453 rounds of live ammunition.<\/p>\n
