The Enugu State Police Command has arrested seven notorious criminal suspects who have been operating for years within the Holy Ghost axis of the Enugu metropolis.
In a raid, police recovered nine female handbags, two wallets, two-wheel spanners, one iron saw, one serviceable Dell laptop, one Zenith Bank ATM card bearing “Joy Akiji”, one NIN registration slip and other incriminating exhibits, all snatched from victims.

He said the raid and arrest were carried out on the evening of Friday, Oct. 27, 2023.
