The Rivers State Police Command on Monday said it received 35 suspected election offenders from the Nigeria Army.
The Command’s spokesman, Nnamdi Omoni, disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria in a telephone interview in Port Harcourt.
The army had made the arrest on Saturday during the Etche/Omuma Federal Constituency and Etche State Constituency elections.
Omoni said that the suspects were handed over to the command on Sunday night and was still awaiting more to be handed over.
He said the suspects were being interrogated and would be arraigned in court after the remaining ones had been handed over to police and interrogated.
