The Anambra State Police Force has killed one of the leaders of the gunmen terrorizing the state and arrested five other gang members. They also rescued four kidnapped victims in Neni town, Anaocha Local Council of the state.

 

Ikenga Tochukwu, the spokesman of the state police command, in Awka, yesterday, said the police operatives working with the vigilante in the area stormed the location on Sunday and rescued the four victims, and arrested one Emeka.


“Upon interrogation, Emeka confessed to the crime and led the detectives to the hideout of his gang in Oba, where the detectives engaged the gangsters in a shootout. “ He said.


According to the gang leader, Chinedu Ajogu, was gunned down; while five others, including their native doctor, were arrested.

The state police command has commended indigenes of the state for giving information to security operatives on criminals in their localities because this information has helped burst many criminal syndicates in the last one week, and also taken out many criminal elements.


He further stated that the Commissioner of Police (CP), Echeng Echeng, had complained about the reluctance of most communities to give information on criminals, who have been code-named unknown gunmen.

“The CP had complained that there seemed to be a conspiracy of silence among most indigenes, but I can tell you that after those reports, many indigenes have now started volunteering information to us.”

“Within one week, we have got information that we never knew existed. We have also heard a lot of stories from people, and we have used that information to burst many criminal syndicates.”
