The FCT Police Command has commenced a major enforcement operation against vehicles with unauthorised tinted glass, covered number plates, and improper registration, citing their increasing use in criminal activities across Abuja.
Speaking at a press conference on Friday at the FCT Police Command Headquarters, the Commissioner of Police, Ahmed Muhammed Sanusi, said intelligence reports revealed that criminal elements frequently exploit such vehicles to conceal their identities, evade detection, and facilitate crimes, including the notorious “one-chance” robberies, kidnappings, and other offences.
CP Sanusi described the trend as a serious threat to public safety and emphasised the need for decisive action to curb its growing impact within the Federal Capital Territory.
