Police Arrest Suspect In Calabar, Two Years After He Vanished With Truckload Of Cement

Posted on December 9, 2023December 9, 2023 By Admin No Comments on Police Arrest Suspect In Calabar, Two Years After He Vanished With Truckload Of Cement

The Zone 6 Command of the Nigeria Police, Calabar, Cross River State, say they have arrested 41-year-old Achugo Kenneth Onyebuchi from Ogoda community, Ahoada LGA, Rivers State, two years after he absconded with an Articulated Truck.

The truck with registration No. APP 840 XW, was loaded with 800 bags of cement valued at ?33,469,930.00, meant for delivery to a customer in Owerri, Imo State on the 6th January, 2022, when it went missing shortly after the suspect and truck left Calabar.

The Zone 6 Police Public Relations Officer, Nelson Okpabi, Onyebuchi, who made this disclosure in Calabar, say the suspect deliberately disconnected the on-board tracking device OBC, in the truck, making it impossible for the company or her associates to know the truck’s real time location and visibility.

TSL, owners of the truck, had written a petition to the police, triggering a police investigation that led the police to Flat B’, Ikot Nkebre Layout, 8? Miles, Calabar on 1st December 2023, where the suspect was arrested.

The suspect on interrogation, admitted to have handed over the truck to his friend one Hamilton in Akwa Ibom State, who completed the diversion formalities, without notifying the owners of the truck and cement. The suspect also said that he got a call, days later, from a person he did not mention, informing him that the truck was intercepted in Edo State by men of the Nigerian Customs. At the point of interception, the truck, having been stripped of the cement, was conveying rice to Lagos

Assistant Inspector General of Police, Zone 6, Jonathan Towuru, commenting on the arrest, warned that criminals like the suspect, have no hiding place when the police is notified.
