Ibrahim Isiaka has been taken into custody by the Nasarawa State Police Command on charges of slicing the neck of a commercial motorcyclist and stealing his motorbike in Karu Local Government Area of the state.
In a statement signed and made public in Lafia on Friday, April 19, the Public Relations Officer of the command, DSP Ramhan Nansel, stated that the suspect was apprehended as a result of the efforts of local police officers assigned to the Masaka division.
According to Nansel, the suspect requested a commercial motorcycle rider to drive him to Bigmali on Masaka’s Jankanwa Road. But the rider was unaware that the suspect had plotted to take his motorcycle with a companion.
“While in transit, the suspect used a knife and slit the throat of the commercial motorcyclist and snatched the motorcycle with the help of the other suspect still at large,” he said.
The police spokesperson said that as soon as the command received information of the act, its officers immediately swung into action, and rushed the victim to the hospital to save his life.
“The victim is still in an undisclosed medical facility and is responding to treatment. A thorough manhunt led to the arrest of the suspect and recovery of the stolen motorcycle.
“The suspect is currently helping us in the investigation and efforts are ongoing to arrest the other suspect still at large. The suspect will be charged to court upon the conclusion of the investigation,” the PPRO added. [CONTINUE READING HERE]
