The Delta State Police Command has successfully apprehended three suspected gunrunners who manufacture and supply weapons to armed robbers and kidnappers. The suspects, identified as Tega Dierunaba, Chibiuke Anuforo Cosmas, and Sunday Moses Pam, were arrested on July 16, 2024, following an intensive intelligence-led investigation.
According to Police Public Relations Officer SP Bright Edafe, the operatives arrested the suspects between 1 pm and 7:35 pm in Ughelli. Sunday Moses Pam, one of the suspects, was found to conceal and convey arms from Plateau State to Delta State. All three suspects have confessed to the crime, which was also admitted by Goodluck Sakutu, a previously arrested suspect from whom a fabricated AK-47 rifle was recovered.
The suspects are currently in custody, and the investigation is ongoing. This recent breakthrough is a follow-up to a previous recovery of a fabricated AK-47 rifle on June 8, 2024, which led to the arrest of three individuals. The Delta State Police Command's efforts to combat gunrunning and related criminal activities continue to yield positive results.
