Two suspected cable thieves have been mercilessly beaten and tied to a transformer fence Anagada village, Gwagwaalada Area Council of Abuja by an angry mob. 

 

According to information revealed by a resident of the community, simply identified as Iliyasu, the incident happened on Wednesday night.

 

Dailytrust reports that the two suspects allegedly went to vandalize a newly installed transformer at the outskirts of the community but a security guard at the village primary school heard strange sounds from the direction of the transformer and raised alarm.

 

“That attracted the attention of some youth who ran after them. One of them was apprehended and taken to the chief’s palace. But luck ran out on the second one who came back the next day to carry the cables inside the sack when he was also nabbed and tied to the transformer fence together with the first one,” he said. 

 

He said the two suspects were later handed over to men of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) at Gwagwalada.
