The Lagos State Police Command has arrested four suspects after intercepting a truck conveying sacks of military camouflage and cartons of suspected hard drugs from Lagos to Nigeria’s South-East region.
The Commissioner of Police in Lagos, Tijani Fatai, disclosed this on Tuesday during a press briefing at the command headquarters in Ikeja, where he outlined major breakthroughs recorded by the command in the last two weeks.
According to Fatai, operatives of the State Tactical Squad intercepted the truck on Saturday night following intelligence reports that the suspicious consignment was being moved out of Lagos through the Lekki-Epe corridor.
He said the truck was loaded with several bags containing military camouflage uniforms and cartons filled with different types of suspected illicit drugs.
