A five-man gang said to be responsible for vandalism at Alapata area in Modakeke has been arrested by the men of Vigilante Service.
The suspects, Kunle Adedibu, Tunde Odetola, and two others were arrested on Saturday for alleged vandalism.
According to the vigilante man, Mr Adeniran Daniel told our correspondent on Sunday that nemesis caught up with the men as they were rounded up by the vigilante routine patrol team in the early hours of yesterday.
“The operation was carried out by our routine team patrolling that axis. They have observed the taxi for some time and waited for the owner. After some hours’ wait, the gang came out from the bush with some stolen cables, two motorcycles and the motor and loaded their car. Our team then acted promptly,” he said.
He added that the arrested gang had made useful statements which have been transferred, together with the men to the police for further investigation.
Items recovered from the suspects included three-roll of 150mm cable, one industrial electric motor, two motorcycles and the taxi cab.
