The police in Edo State have arrested four persons who disguised as military officers over armed robbery and cultism.

Parading the suspects in Benin, the command’s spokesperson, Chidi Nwanbuzor, said the suspects were arrested following a petition to the police commissioner by one Grace Ainabe over a robbery incident in her house.

Chidi said the suspects, Iyabo Victor (35), Osas Aganmwonyi (28), Nosa Owie (24) and Idi Etukudo, all in military camouflage, broke into the house located in Teboga community, off Lucky Way, Benin City, and stole the complainant’s belongings, including money.
