“Upon the receipt of the complaint, operatives swung into action and embarked on tracking intelligence that led to the arrest of the suspects and recovery of a Volvo truck with Reg. No. AGL 102 XM used in the evacuation of the stolen items.
“Some of the stolen items such as television sets, DVD players were equally recovered from the suspects,” he said.
