The Police Command in Kaduna State says its operatives have arrested seven suspected cultists and recovered firearms in the state.
The command’s Public Relations Officer, ASP Mansir Hassan, stated the arrest in a statement issued on Tuesday in Kaduna.
According to Hassan, the arrest is a major blow to criminal networks in the state as the command continues to make significant strides in pursuit of justice and safety for all citizens.
He added that “in yet another remarkable achievement, the command has arrested seven suspected cultists, seized illegal firearms, and recovered suspicious substance believed to be blood.”
He explained that the operation, conducted on April 6, was initiated based on intelligence gathered from a reliable source.
“Acting swiftly on the received information, police operatives moved into action at about 03:00 hours after reports indicated unusual activities in the rocky and mountainous region of Dumbi along the Kaduna-Zaria expressway.
“During the raid, seven suspects were arrested, while others fled.”
