cattle rustlers in the state.
The
state Police Commissioner, Alhaji Tijja Baba who made this known in an
interview with Vanguard, at Gusau, the state capital, explained that his men
recovered the cows following intelligence reports from some patriotic Nigerians
in the state.
Baba
further said that the police also recovered two A-K47 riffles and other
dangerous weapons from the cattle thieves, following a raid of their hideouts.
In the
process of the raid, dozens of cows were found in the bush, while two suspects
were arrested with the two AK-47 riffles and some sharp knives.
The
state police boss said that all the recovered cows were currently under the
custody of the command, adding that, “my men will not relent in their efforts
to making the state crime free.”
He
