Kano CP Ibrahim Bakori
By AMINU GARKO
The Police Command in Kano State has arrested a wanted notorious thug, Sunusi Dawa Kamsusi, and nine others for alleged armed robbery, house breaking, theft, drug trafficking, and destruction of vigilante group facilities.
This is contained in a statement issued by the command’s Spokesperson, CSP Abdullahi Kiyawa, in Kano on Friday.
Kiyawa said that the arrest followed a letter of complaint from Hannu Da Yawa Youth Development Association Bachirawa (HADAYA) regarding public outcry by residents of Bachirawa, Kurna, Rijiyar Lemo, Zango, Kunture, and neighbouring communities about the activities of Kamsusi’s gang.
The state Commissioner of Police, Ibrahim Bakori, directed a team from the Anti-Daba Unit to arrest the perpetrators, resulting in the recovery of three knives and a suspected charm from the prime suspect.
During investigation, the suspect confessed to various crimes, with 30 people lodging complaints against the gang.
The suspects would be charged to court upon completion of the investigation. (NAN)
