Two traffic robbers, Azeez Folarin and Azeez Rilwan, have been taken into custody by Rapid Response Squad (RRS) operatives in Ikeja, Lagos.
The duo had been robbing motorists before they started exploiting Rilwan’s chronic pile to rob unsuspecting motorists of their belongings.
In a statement released on Monday, April 22, the Lagos Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, disclosed that several drivers in the Ketu and Ojota area of the state had their phones stolen by the culprits.
“Operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) have arrested two traffic robbery suspects in Ikeja.
“The suspects, Azeez Folarin, ‘m’ aged 23 and Azeez Rilwan ‘m’ aged 27, were arrested at about 7 am in front of Ikeja City Mall.
“Preliminary investigation revealed that the suspects have robbed many motorists of their phones around Ketu and Ojota and had been operating individually in Ketu, before coming together to exploit Rilwan’s chronic pile to rob unsuspecting motorists.
“The suspects were arrested by the RRS team stationed at the mall immediately after Folarin snatched the mobile phone of a motorist who was trying to give alms to Rilwan having seen his medical condition.
“While Rilwan was released on bail due to his serious state of health, Folarin has been arraigned.” [CONTINUE READING HERE]
