Notorious Female Armed Robber Arrested In Delta State
Men of the Delta state police command led by CSP Anieteh Eyoh,
on Monday morning, arrested a notorious female armed robber, Bella Lucky, and
two other suspects of a criminal gang at McClivers market area in Warri, Delta
State.
According to Punch, the armed robbery syndicate, who has
been on the police wanted list, included two boys and a female. They are
presently in custody at the Delta State Police Command in Asaba.
Daggers and some mobile phones were recovered from the
suspects by the police operatives, who tracked the notorious female suspect
down to a hideout after she allegedly stabbed and inflicted injuries on a
yet-to-be-identified woman.
The notorious female armed robber specialises in luring
victims to the criminal gangs terrorising Warri and its environs with a
commercial tricycle, popularly known across the state as “Keke”.
Confirming the arrest of the armed robbery syndicate, the
Delta State Commissioner of Police, CP Mohammed Hafiz Inuwa, told journalists
in Warri that “three of them were arrested. One of them is a very young girl.”
Inuwa said, “These are armed robbers who were using a woman.
It’s not a question of a notorious armed robber. It’s a gang using knife,
stabbing people and robbing them.”
According to the police boss, the modus operandi of the
syndicate is to use the female robber “to deceive passengers, engage them in a
discussion, get them carried away, and rob them”.
“They’ve been arrested and they’re in our custody,”, the CP
added.
