The command’s Public Relations Officer, DSP Lawan Shiisu Adam, told newsmen Sunday that the arrests occurred between May 1 and 15, 2024, during raids on black spots and criminal hideouts across the state. He said the suspects include two alleged kidnappers, three fraudsters, two motorcycle thieves, one vandal, and 85 drug peddlers/abusers.
