Police operatives
attached to Ogun State Police Command's Sagamu Division, have again
intercepted a truck loaded with vandalized petrol( PMS) in Sagamu. The interception took place at 7pm on Christmas Day, barely 4 days after a 33,000 litre truck loaded
with vandalized petrol was intercepted in Ogijo in Sagamu Local
Government Area of Ogun State.
The Public Relations Officer of the command, DSP Muyiwa Adejobi disclosed that the "police operatives
who acted on a tip-off moved to the Pipeline and caught one Elochukwu
Byron and others, now at large, in the act of siphoning petrol into
the truck with Registration Number KTU 760 XC".
He confirmed to The Anchor Online that "the suspect and the exhibits will be transferred to the
Department of Criminal Investigation and Intelligence, Eleweran, Abeokuta
for further Investigation on the directive of the Commissioner of Police
Ogun State CP Abdulmajid Ali.
The suspect is assisting the police in its investigation to
apprehend the fleeing members of the gang and reveal more information
that will assist the police".
Adejobi also mentioned that CP Abdulmajid Ali,
has put all officers and men of the command on their toes to
make sure that pipelines and installations are adequately protected
particularly during this fuel crises as many of the hoodlums will want
to seize the opportunity to perpetrate their criminal act of economic
sabotage.
The Commissioner of
Police also assured the people of Ogun state of adequate protection
of lives and property and to relegate and expose any criminal that may
want to disturb the existing peace being enjoyed in Ogun State.
