The
Federal Capital Territory Police Command has commenced a raid of mountains in
the territory
It was gathered that bandits, kidnappers and other criminal
elements terrorising the FCT, especially in border communities, have their
enclaves built around the mountains in Abuja.
The
Command, acting on intelligence, raided mountains and destroyed the hideouts of
kidnappers in the Kwali Area Council of the FCT.
It said mountains in Yangoje and Old Chukuku in the Kwali Area
Council have so far been cleared of criminal hideouts by the police.
The Deputy Commissioner of Police in Charge of Operations,
Ben Igwe, said the operation would be sustained until all criminal elements
were dislodged from the territory.
