Following the recent attack on the Kuje Maximum Custodial Centre, Abuja, and subsequent escape of inmates, the Nasarawa State Police Command says it has arrested one Mr. Hassan Hassan, whose name and picture was among the escaped inmates with Boko Haram/Terrorism Cases, in the Keffi Local Government Area of the state.
The Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Ramhan Nansel, made the disclosure in a press statement made available to newsmen in Lafia on Saturday.
He said, “The fleeing Boko Haram suspect was recaptured by the eagle-eyed police operatives of the command in Keffi LGA of the state.
“The Commissioner of Police, CP Adesina Soyemi, has ordered for the transfer of the suspect to a safer location while intensive search for other escapees and handing over process of the arrested inmate progresses.
“CP Soyemi appreciates the efforts of the command’s police operatives for a job well done and assures members of the public of the command’s unrelenting efforts at making the public space safer for all.”
