Three Suspected Members Of A Notorious Robbery Gang Nabbed In Lagos

A gang of 3 dare-devil armed robbers that have caused a reign of terror in Ajegunle and other areas in Lagos state have been nabbed by the members of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, Ikeja.

According to Vanguard, the suspects, identified as Tunde Seun, 20; Abayomi Segun, 28, and Turheeb Kolawole, 19, met their waterloo after a member of the gang, Tunde Seun, was apprehended by a mob during an aborted operation on Ligali Street.

The suspects were said to have stormed a building on number 42 and dispossessed one of their victims of N150, 000 and two power generating sets.

Vanguard reports that they were overpowered by a mob and were forced to flee for safety. Unluckily, a member of their gang named Seun was caught by the angry mob who were ready to lynch him if not for the intervention of the law enforcement agents.

One of the suspects, Abayomi Segun, disclosed that he was the armourer of the gang.

“I am in charge of keeping the gang’s weapons, after each robbery operation. We don’t kill people; we only use the gun to scare victims during operations. We are responsible for several robbery attacks in the area. And we operate within Ajegunle axis, Charles Avenue, Alaba, Ojo road”, Segun confessed.

Since the arrest, the people of Ajegunle and its environs are currently having a sense of relief from the threat of robbers.
