World Police arrest Kano bomb blast suspects by Joseph Anthony June 6, 2014 written by Joseph Anthony June 6, 2014 219 The police in Kano have arrested the perpetrators of last year’s multiple bomb blasts at the New Road Luxury Park in Sabon Gari. Commissioner of Police Adenrele Shinaba said: “If you recall last year, there were bomb blasts at New Road Park, Sabon Gari, Kano. The Command is getting a breakthrough. “Some suspects are in custody and some exhibits have been recovered. Investigation is on and after that, we will be able to provide you with details. We shall get to the root of the matter and we won’t rest on our oars until we do so.” The police recovered Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) in a joint operation with the Department of State Services (DSS). Three fabricated air conditioner coolants, cans containing hand grenades, two fabricated fire extinguisher containers built with electronic switch, four pieces of teargas cartridges, two gas cylinders and three fabricated oil containers with electric components built to be detonated by remote controls were safely defused by the police anti-bomb squad. Shinaba said prompt information by the public led to the discovery of the explosives. The commissioner said the police foiled the vandalisation of telecommunication facilities in Bebeji. The hoodlums removed 39 batteries which were concealed inside tomato baskets. Breaking tools and a vehicle were recovered but the suspects fled when they sighted the police. Shinaba said the command also arrested three suspected car thieves and recovered six vehicles and a tricycle. He said: “A combined team of Police Special Anti-Robbery Squad and the famous Ali Kwara Vigilance team on patrol on Zaria Road pursued a Toyota Camry with two occupants. “The occupants abandoned the car and ran into a nearby bush. On a search, 20 live ammunitions of AK 47, 7.62mm were recovered, but no arrest was made. “The raid of black spots in Kano will continue; we are not sleeping; and as such, robberies and rapes have reduced. We are doing all we can to secure lives and property by adopting proactive measures for residents to live in peace.” 0 comments 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail Joseph Anthony previous post Stop celebrating terrorists, Jonathan tells media next post Emir of Kano’s death a national loss – Jonathan You may also like UK Designates IRGC, IMCR and Russia’s GRU Volunteer...
