FCT: Police impound 296 vehicles over tinted glass, number plate offences

FCT: Police impound 296 vehicles over tinted glass, number plate offences

The Police Command in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) said it had impounded 296 vehicles over tinted glass and number plate offences.

The Commissioner of Police (CP) in charge of the FCT, Mr Olatunji Disu, said this during a media briefing on Tuesday in Abuja.

He said the vehicles were impounded over use of tinted glass, driving with only one plate number and use of concealed or defaced number plates.

Disu said the various operations of the command had successfully foiled five ‘One Chance’ robbery attacks, resulting to the rescue of three victims abducted by the criminals.

According to him, the achievements highlight the effectiveness of the command’s proactive strategies and the importance of public collaboration in ensuring the safety of FCT residents.

He said the command’s recent declaration of war against “one chance” robbers and other criminal gangs in the FCT led to the arrest of a “one chance” robbery suspect on Nov. 23.

Disu said the suspect was arrested by operatives of the command’s State Intelligence Department (SID) during routine patrol along Ahmadu Bello Way in Abuja.

According to him, suspicious circumstances surrounding his parked vehicle prompted a search that led to the recovery of one Point-of-Sale (POS) machine, one knife, scissors, two mobile phones and female luggage, suspected to be stolen.

“Upon interrogation, the suspect failed to provide a satisfactory explanation for the items, raising concerns about his involvement in ‘one chance’ robberies,” he said.

Disu said the suspect was in the command’s custody and would be charged to court upon conclusion of the investigation.

The CP said operatives from Karimo Division on Nov. 28 arrested a suspect over “one chance” robbery along Idu Industrial Area Road.

He said the arrest of the suspect and rescue of the victim, a heavily pregnant woman, followed swift response to a distress call over an ongoing robbery attack in the area.

Disu said preliminary investigations had revealed that the victim was abducted on her way home from Federal Medical Center Jabi by a gang posing as commercial vehicle operators.

The CP said efforts were ongoing to apprehend other fleeing members of the gang.
