The Police Command in Lagos State has arrested three suspects and recovered a truck loaded with military uniforms and suspected illicit drugs following an intelligence-led operation by the Anti-Kidnapping Unit.
The Commissioner of Police, Mr. Fatai Tijani, disclosed this on Tuesday while briefing journalists at the Command Headquarters in Ikeja.
He said the operation followed actionable intelligence that led operatives to intercept an unregistered MAN diesel truck along a route in Lagos.
“The vehicle was found loaded with 47 sacks containing military camouflage uniforms and 80 cartons of substances suspected to be illicit drugs.
“Preliminary investigations indicate that the truck was being used to transport the military camouflage uniforms to the eastern part of the country,” he said.
According to him, investigations are ongoing to determine the source, ownership, and intended recipients of the recovered items.
He added that efforts were underway to establish the extent of the suspects’ involvement and to identify other members of the criminal network.
The commissioner assured that the command would continue to intensify intelligence-led policing to clamp down on criminal activities across the state.
He added that the suspects would be prosecuted upon the conclusion of investigations. (NAN)
