Police said the raids were in tandem with the renewed and continuous effort to rid the state of criminal elements and safeguard lives and properties.

Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) of the Command, DSP Mansir Hassan said the suspects were apprehended in a coordinated operation spearheaded by Divisional Police Officers (DPOs) in metropolitan areas, particularly in Rigasa, Kawo, Tudun wada, Sabon Tasha and other communities.

The Command’s spokesman disclosed that the crackdown which was part of ongoing efforts to restore public confidence and enhance internal security, led to the recovery of dangerous weapons and hard drugs.

As part of the operation, he disclosed that on June 13, 2025, police carried out raids in Rigasa which resulted in the recovery of illicit drugs and 30 bags and about 1,600 wraps of dried leaves suspected to be Indian hemp and other dangerous weapons.
