Katsina CP Hails Personnel for Arresting Car Thief, Rejecting N1m Bribe 

The Katsina State Police Command has apprehended two suspected car thieves and rejected a ₦1 million bribe allegedly offered by the suspects in an attempt to evade arrest.

This was disclosed in a statement released on Wednesday by the Command’s Public Relations Officer, DSP Abubakar Sadiq.

According to the statement, the suspects — 26-year-old Mubarak Kabir and 27-year-old Adamu Hashim, both from Kurna quarters in Fagge LGA of Kano State — were intercepted by officers on routine patrol along Birnin Kuka village in Mashi Local Government Area on April 11, 2025.

The suspects were driving a green Toyota Corolla LE reportedly stolen from the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.

“Upon interception, a preliminary investigation revealed the vehicle was stolen. The suspects attempted to bribe the patrol officers with ₦1,000,000 in cash, which was firmly rejected,” DSP Sadiq said.

Exhibits recovered from the suspects included the stolen vehicle, ₦1 million in cash, three mobile phones, a power bank, and a bunch of keys.

The suspects are currently in custody while investigations continue to determine the extent of their criminal activities.

Commissioner of Police, CP Bello Shehu, lauded the officers involved for their integrity and professionalism, reiterating the Command’s dedication to safeguarding lives and property while upholding the rule of law and human rights.
