The Police Command in Anambra has foiled a cult initiation ceremony in Nawfia, Njikoka Local Government Area (LGA) of the State.

The Command Public Relations Officer (PPRO), SP Tochukwu Ikenga made this known in a statement on Tuesday in Awka.

Ikenga said that the police operatives carried out the operation at about 9.30am on June 15 in the area.

He said that during the raid, the operatives arrested six suspects, recovered one Jojef pump action gun, two cartridges and one golden coloured Lexus SUV with registration number – ATN 202 AE.

Other items recovered at the scene include two cutlasses, two scissors, one cap with inscription of the Supreme Vikings confraternity, some charms, and substances suspected to be hard drugs.

“They are currently undergoing police interrogation to get more insight into their modus operandi, after which the case will be charged to Court on the conclusion of the investigations,” Ikenga said.

The police spokesman reassured residents that the command remains committed to combat cultism and other related crimes in the state.
