He said, “The gang has been successful in five previous operations while their modus operandi includes stationing one gang member some meters from Berger bus stop to spot unregistered vehicles and the spotter will then call his gang members who are dressed in military fatigue and stationed somewhere around Berger bus stop to inform them of the approaching vehicle. Once they stop their victim, they request the vehicle’s customs papers, as they would need to clear security and customs checks.’’

The police boss added that, ‘’In this incident after seeing the papers, they insisted on taking their victim to their base.

“Once they entered the vehicle, it dawned on Mr. Sanni that they were robbers. He called out for help, which made the robbers shoot him thrice and further stabbed him.
