As the fight against crime in the South-East geopolitical zone intensifies, operatives of the Ebonyi State Police Command have arrested no fewer than 131 suspects for various crimes and rescued two kidnap victims.<\/p>\n
The State Police Commissioner, Mrs Adaku Uche-Anya, made this known in Abakaliki, the state capital, while speaking with journalists on the command\u2019s achievements from July to mid-August.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
According to her, the suspects include 120 males and 11 females.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The Commissioner told newsmen that the suspects were arrested for alleged armed robbery, kidnapping, murder, and crisis instigation, among others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
She added that the command had also, on August 14, rescued two kidnapped students in Ikwo Local Government Area of the state.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
According to her, \u201cAs you are aware, Ebonyi, being predominantly agrarian, often experiences recurring crises over land and boundary disputes during the farming season, arising from the struggle for arable land.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\u201cIn addressing these challenges, the command has deployed early warning mechanisms to promptly detect and contain brewing disputes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\u201cWe have also adopted a non-kinetic approach, engaging robustly with relevant stakeholders to ensure that differences are settled through civil dialogue rather than violence.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Continuing, \u201cThe command continues to closely monitor flashpoints with land and boundary issues, and through this proactive strategy, we are recording encouraging results while remaining vigilant in ensuring the safety of our people.\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
