Operatives of Ebute Ero Division have apprehended one Jackson Abraham, ‘m’, for being in possession of a stolen vehicle, which was recovered during a routine surveillance patrol.
The arrest and recovery occurred when patrol officers, acting on reasonable suspicion, intercepted the suspect with a Mitsubishi Space vehicle, ash in colour. Preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect removed the vehicle from a park in Ogun State without the consent of the rightful owner, who coincidentally resides at the same address as the suspect. The vehicle was promptly recovered intact and has since been taken to the station.
Confirming the arrest to newsmen, CSP Benjamin Hundeyin, who is the spokesperson of the command, said the rightful owner, who had earlier reported the vehicle missing in Ogun State, has since been contacted and is fully cooperating with ongoing investigations.
Hundeyin mentioned that the suspect remains in custody as preparations are underway to transfer both the suspect and the recovered vehicle to the Ogun State Police Command, where the case was originally reported and is currently under investigation.
