A suspected illegal gunrunner has been arrested by the Adamawa State Police Command.
The Command said in a statement released Friday night that it effected the arrest while on a stop-and-search operation.
“The achievement was made by the Command’s operatives attached to Gombi Division in a joint operation with Hunters,” the Command said in the statement.
It specified that this happened while the operatives were on a stop-and-search operation along Ngada–Gombi road.
The statement signed by the Police Public Relations Officer, Suleiman Nguroje, said the operatives intercepted and apprehended the suspect identified simply as one Remos, a 23-year-old resident of Sheno Belta village in Gombi Local Government Area.
