“The Police are on it. No culprit will be left unpunished”, the CP said.
He assured the Abia public that his Command had activated a statewide security system to ensure the safety of lives and property, adding that a technology-based system had been installed to track suspected criminals.
CP Danladi, who said that his Command “encountered and decimated some non-state actors at various times”, further warned other non-state actors in Abia to embrace peace in their own interest or face the wrath of the law.
