To rid Lagos State of criminal elements who carry out nefarious activities, the State Taskforce carried out a raid across strategic locations where they arrested 31 suspects at Oshodi, Ilupeju, and Mushin lurking in the dark around garages and bus stops, waiting for the unsuspecting public to prey on.
The Chairman of the Agency, CSP Shola Jejeloye, who led the operation, disclosed that raids on black spots and criminal hideouts are an efficient policing strategy that has yielded positive results over the years.
“We carry out these raids periodically to curb incidents of traffic robbery, pickpocketing, and purse snatching which usually occur late at night and early hours in the morning. We will carry out more raids and utilize other strategies to ensure that criminal elements have no comfort in the State”.
He added that the suspects will be screened and charged to Court.
