Detectives from the Enugu State Command’s Criminal Investigation Department (CID) recovered firearms, ammunition, machetes, and items believed to be stolen.
According to SP Daniel Ndukwe, the Public Relations Officer of the Command, the report indicated that unidentified armed robbers invaded the community of Ibagwa-Nike, Enugu, and robbed residents of their valuables on February 3 and 6, 2025.
Following the transfer of the case, detectives from the Anti-Robbery Section (D9) launched an intelligence-guided investigation that led to the arrest of the seven male suspects.
Recovered items, which include SIM cards, identification cards, clothing, supplements, and other stolen goods, have been identified by their owners.
