The Anambra State Police Command has apprehended three men suspected of being members of a notorious robbery gang that targets residents, particularly those with valuable vehicles.

According to a statement released on Monday by the command’s spokesperson, SP Tochukwu Ikenga, the arrests were made following the confession of an armed suspect already in custody. Ikenga detailed that officers from the Rapid Response Squad, Awkuzu, conducted the operation in Agukwu-Nri, located within the Anaocha Local Government Area, on Saturday.

During the raid, police recovered an automatic pump action gun and several items believed to be stolen, including a white Mercedes Benz C300 4matic (registration number KWC 140), an ash-coloured Lexus 350 (registration number 669 CY), and two high-end mobile phones.

Ikenga stated, “Police operatives attached to the Rapid Response Squad, Awkuzu in the early hours of May 30, 2025, acting on information obtained from an armed suspect in custody, arrested one Monday Onoja, Sanusi Muhammed, Kenneth Nwokpu, all males and within the age bracket of 27 – 32 years.”
