Lawan said a total of 537 suspects were arrested for various crimes including robbery, culpable homicide, gender-based violence, vandalism, and public nuisance within the period under review.

He lauded Gov. Babagana Zulum’s administration for reviewing the Borno Penal Code which he said facilitated the convictions and prescribed stiffer penalties for criminals.
