The arrests were made during operations between July 15 and July 30, which also led to the recovery of firearms, vehicles and other incriminating evidence.

The Command’s Spokesman, SP Daniel Ndukwe, in a statement on Friday in Enugu, said that the state’s Commissioner of Police, Mr Mamman Giwa, had commended the operatives for their proactive efforts.
Ndukwe said that on July 30, operatives of the Anti-Cultism Tactical Squad, acting on confessional statement of Ekene who is under investigation for conspiracy and armed robbery, stormed Oyofo-Oghe in Ezeagu LGA.

“The operation led to the detaining of three additional suspects: Ebuka Odinko, 35; Chiemerie Amano, 25; and Onyebuchi Onyekwere, 24.

“Preliminary investigations reveal that they are members of the Vikings Confraternity and have been involved in a series of armed robbery incidents during which they dispossessed residents of their valuables.”
