Operatives of the Nigeria Police Force, Zone 2 Command, Onikan, Lagos, in collaboration with INTERPOL Nigeria, have arrested a fleeing suspect linked to a high-profile burglary and stealing case involving properties valued at about N150 million in Lagos.

The Assistant Inspector-General of Police in charge of Zone 2, AIG Olohundare Moshood Jimoh, disclosed this on Monday during a press briefing, describing the arrest as another major breakthrough in crime detection and control within the zone.

According to the AIG, the crime was committed on July 11, 2025, when a gang allegedly broke into a residential property and carted away valuables worth hundreds of millions of naira.
