Kwara State Police Command has arrest suspects involved in a criminal conspiracy and attempted armed robbery in Ilorin.
In a statement by the command Public Relations officer SP Adetoun Ejinre-Adeyemi says one Abdulazeez Ishaq of Gerewu, Ilorin, reported that Adekoya Opeyemi a.k.a. Justice confessed he was contracted by one Abdulwahab Ahmad to kill him and steal his Honda Accord (2013 model).
It says acting on Abdulwahab’s instruction, Adekoya was directed to tie the victim, lock him in the boot of his car, and drive to the Unity area where Abdulwahab planned to take possession and proceed to Ibadan with the victim in the vehicle.
According to it in a tactically coordinated operation, operatives of the command advised the complainant to play along while surveillance was mounted.
The statement explains that the suspect was swiftly arrested at the agreed location as he attempted to take possession of the car, thereby foiling the planned robbery and murder.
It urge members of the public to remain vigilant, share credible information promptly, and continue to support the Police in the Command.
