...Recovers Dane Guns, Cutlasses and sticks
The Zamfara State Police Command has arrested 18 suspects for organising and partaking in an unlawful assembly, illicit demonstration and damages to public and private properties in Shinkafi Local Government Area of Zamfara State.
This was contained in a statement made available by the state Police Public Relations Officer SP Mohammed Shehu ANIPR. It said "the Youths, suspected to have sponsored by some unscrupulous elements to undermine the relative peace of the area went with several arms and ammunition such as dane guns, cutlasses and sticks to the Palace of Emir of Shinkafi and residential houses of one Murtala Dele and Moyi Sidi where they vandalised windows and doors of the three houses.
"Joint Police and Military quickly responded and dispersed the protesters to avoid unwarranted breakdown of law and order and possible loss of lives and properties.
"18
suspects were arrested in possession of guns, cutlasses and sticks. All
the suspects are in Police Custody undergoing interrogation."
The
statement further revealed that the Commissioner of Police CP Abutu
Yaro fdc, has ordered the State Criminal Investigation Department (CID)
to commence a discreet investigation into the unlawful protest with a
view to unravel the circumstances behind the dastardly act. He further
warned parents and guardians to always have a firm control over their
children so that they don't involve in violence activities.
