The Police said they have arrested three suspects over house breaking, robbery of gold and other valuables in Abuja.
He added that the suspects were arrested following an investigation by operatives of the Intelligence Response Team (IRT).
Adejobi said further investigation revealed that the prime suspect in the case was a fish trader at the Kado fish market in Abuja.
He said the suspects had raided three houses in the Lugbe area of Abuja before getting to the fourth house where they jumped the fence and used a motor jack to expand the bars of the burglary.
Adejobi said the suspects expanded the bars of the burglary and had access into the house where they searched for items they could steal.
He said in the process, they found a safe in the house, went away with it and used a hammer and chisel to break the safe forcefully and found money, documents and gold.
“Upon the discovery, the prime suspect contacted a buyer to dispose of the items where he realised over N60 million after selling the items,” he said. The Abuja Inquirer
