The Anambra State Police command has arrested male suspects namely; Collins Okoli, 33 and Friday Ebie, 41, both from Delta State and their female accomplices; Cynthia Agu, aged 20 years and Mary Andrew, aged 20 years, both of Enugu State for snatching the sum of four hundred thousand naira (N400,000) from one Nwnaye Philomena, 30.

The Police Public Relations Officer of the command, Mr. Haruna Mohammed who confirmed the arrest in a statement in Awka stated that at about 2pm on 30th July, 2019, the victim from Akwuzu boarded a taxi at Nteje Boys High School bus stop in Oyi LGA of the State.

According Mohammed, on getting to Nkwelle Ezunaka, the syndicate having suspected that the victim had money in her possession suddenly stopped and asked her to come down so that they can adjust the seat.

“Oblivious of their plan, the victim came down from the car and as soon as she stepped down from the vehicle, the hoodlums sped off with the victim’s bag containing the sum of four hundred thousand naira (N400,000).

“The victim immediately raised alarm which attracted the attention of well-meaning individuals who pursued the suspects up to Nkwelle community where police patrol team attached to 3-3 Division intercepted and arrested the suspects.

“However, it took concerted efforts by the Police before they could rescue the suspects from the mob who descended heavily on them.

“Meanwhile, the snatched money was recovered and vehicle used in perpetrating the offence impounded and registered as exhibits.

“Case under investigation after which suspects would be charged to court for prosecution”, he said.
