Police Parade Two Senior Citizens For Alleged Theft Of Cars In Benin City by ManirBK: 7:31am On Jan 22
The Edo State Police Command has
arrested two sexagenarians and a female
for the alleged stealing of Toyota Camry 2.4
cars valued at N7 million during a crusade
at Garrick Memorial School in Benin City.
DAILY POST reports that Edo State
Commissioner of Police Funsho Adeboye
disclosed this while parading 18 suspected
criminals in Benin City.
Adeboye said the sexagenarians committed
the offence on October 27, 2023.
He gave their names as Augustine
Ikponmwoba, 67, and Roland Ibizugbe, 63,
and the female suspect, Blessing Joseph,
36.
He said the Toyota Camry cars, with
registration numbers MUS 791GA and USL
93AM, each valued at N3.5 million, belonged
to Mrs Joy Mordi and Mr Peter E. Abiwo.
According to him, on November 27, 2023, at
about 8 pm, the Divisional Police Officer in
charge of Evbuotubu Division, Benin City,
received a complaint from Mordi of No. 4
Upper First Federal Road, Uselu and Abiwo
of No. 10 Omoruyi Street that they
individually parked their vehicles at Garrick
Memorial Ground, Ekehuan Road, Benin City,
to attend a crusade, but after the closing of
the crusade at about 8 pm they discovered
that their vehicles had been stolen.
“After a preliminary investigation, the case
was transferred from the Evbuotubu Division
to the Anti-Vehicle Theft Unit of the State
Criminal Investigation Division (CID),” he
said.
The arrest of Blessing Joseph, who had one
of the phones left in Mordi’s vehicle, led to
the arrest of Augustine Ikponmwoba, her
male friend.
Adeboye said Ikponmwoba, in turn, led
operatives of the command to arrest
Ibizugbe.
He explained that the suspects made
statements and confessed to the crime.
He added that the 18 suspects were
arrested for alleged kidnapping, cultism,
armed robbery, and illegal possession of
firearms, among others.
