The Command’s spokesman, Abimbola Oyeyemi, disclosed this in a statement he issued on Wednesday in Abeokuta.
Oyeyemi said the suspect, who had been on wanted list of the Command for quite some time, was arrested while the Divisional Police Officer, Mowe Division, CSP Folashade Tanaruno, was on routine patrol of Mowe/Ofada Road with the Divisional Anti-Robbery team and sighted the suspect in the premises of an hotel at Olororo area of Mowe with a waist bag.
Oyeyemi said on sighting the policemen, the suspect made an attempt to escape but was quickly obstructed and apprehended.
The waist bag in his possession was searched immediately and a locally made double barrel pistol loaded with four live cartridges was recovered therein.
He is one the hoodlums terrorising Mowe/Ofada axis in recent time.
Meanwhile, the Commissioner of Police, CP Lanre Bankole, has ordered the immediate transfer of the suspect to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department for discreet investigation.
