The Kano State Police Command has transferred 76 suspects, including a foreigner, who were arrested for flying Russian flags, to Force Headquarters in Abuja for a thorough investigation on charges of sedition.


State Police Commissioner Salman Garba provided this update on Monday, detailing the number of arrests made in Kano since the nationwide hunger protests began.


“This press conference aims to give a comprehensive update on the recent violent incidents that led to the destruction and looting of government and public properties in Kano State. These incidents were instigated by hoodlums under the guise of a nationwide protest. Additionally, I will outline the achievements recorded by the Command in crime prevention, management, and control from August 1 to date,” he said.


According to Garba, the command has arrested no fewer than 873 suspects and recovered a significant amount of exhibits.


Garba noted that a total of 600 suspects have been prosecuted for various offenses, including criminal conspiracy, inciting disturbance, riot, theft, mischief, and arson.


Additionally, 150 suspects have been arrested and prosecuted for violating the curfew enforced by the Kano State Government. Another six suspects linked to the destruction, arson, and looting of the Kano Printing Press (KPP) are currently under investigation.


The police chief mentioned that items recovered from the suspects included two AK-47 rifles and other substantial properties looted from the Audu Bako Secretariat, NCC Office, High Court Complexes, Kano Printing Press, and supermarkets.


“Despite the challenges posed by the recent protests, it is important to highlight some of the achievements recorded by the Police Command in crime prevention, management, and control during this period.


“The Command has remained resolute and steadfast in its duty to protect the lives and properties of all residents in Kano State. Through proactive policing strategies and community engagement, we have successfully achieved significant successes, including the arrest of two suspected kidnappers, five suspected armed robbers, and eight suspected car thieves.


“Other arrests include two human trafficking suspects, 23 suspected ‘Yan Daba’ (local gangs), one notorious drug dealer, and 13 trafficking victims,” he said.
