The suspects, believed to be members of a notorious armed gang, AKA Konyo, were subsequently remanded in Makurdi Correctional Centre. Those remanded in custody include Terhile Iorkaana, Lanshima Orkunde, Msendoo Faasema, Nancy Shima and Mngusuun Hilega. The Police prosecutor, ASP Stella Ngbede, told the court that the accused persons were arrested by men of Operation Zenda Tactical Team led by Inspector Amile Joseph.
“Operation Zenda on getting the information of their hideout, stormed the area and arrested the bandits while five handsets and one 5.5.6x39mm live ammunition of type 06 rifle were recovered from them.' Ngbede said the suspects, during police investigation, confessed to committing the crime while others are still at large. She said that investigation into the matter is still in progress and prayed the court to adjourn the matter to another date for mention.
