Operatives of the FCT Police Command have arrested a 40-year-old man, Yahaya Saleh, for attempting to bribe police investigators with the sum of ₦1.5million in a desperate bid to secure the release of a kidnap suspect under investigation.

The arrest followed a discreet operation by officers of the Command’s Scorpion Squad, currently handling ongoing investigation into a kidnapping syndicate operating within FCT and its environs.

FCT police spokesperson, SP Josephine Adeh, alleged that Saleh approached the investigators and offered the bribe as an inducement to compromise the case and unlawfully release one of the arrested suspects.

While confirming this, SP Adeh said the officers in demonstration of professionalism, integrity, and unwavering commitment to justice, promptly declined the offer and initiated necessary legal procedures, leading to Saleh’s immediate arrest.

She further stated that while an investigation is ongoing to arrest other actors in the syndicate, the FCT Commissioner of Police, CP Ajao Adewale has commended the officers for their exemplary conduct.
