A four-man carjacking syndicate terrorising the Iba-igondo-Egbeda axis of Lagos State has been smashed by the detectives of the Lagos State Police Command.
The syndicate includes Victor Chibuike ‘m’ aged 26 aka Azaman, Kingsley Ndubuisi ‘m’ aged 33 aka kango, Augustine James ‘m’ aged 29 aka Edo boy, and Lateef Babatunde ‘m’ aged 33.
The arrest followed the launching of a swift investigation immediately after a report was received on August 7, 2022, that a 2010 Lexus RX 350 SUV, 2006 Toyota Camry saloon car, an iPhone, and other valuables were robbed at gunpoint.
Three locally made pistols, one locally made semi-automatic pistol, and 12 live cartridges were recovered from the gang.
Investigations reveal that the suspects were notorious for robbing their victims of their valuables and vehicles along the Iba-Igando-Egbeda axis of Lagos State.
Confirming their arrest, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, spokesperson of the state police command, said efforts are ongoing to arrest the criminal receiver of the stolen goods, and possibly recover other items stolen by the gang in the past. Suspects will be arraigned at the end of the investigation.
