A source revealed that the police inspector was arrested for alleged robberies within the Lokoja metropolis, noting that the officer reportedly took a stolen car to a panel beater’s shop for refurbishment.

“The stolen car was found in the workshop of the policeman’s panel beater, Arome Moses, who was already working on changing the car color at Ochadamu village,” the source said.

“Those who know the vehicle and were aware of the robbery incident that occurred in the owner’s house on June 14, quickly raised an alarm upon sighting the car.

“An alarm was raised, and the panel beater was arrested by policemen of the quick response unit (QRU) attached to the police area command, Idah.

“On interrogation, the panel beater spilled the beans, and the officer was invited and apprehended.

“The car plate number had already been changed to an Abuja number just as a car dealer’s receipt was backdated to 2020 and presented by the officer as evidence that he bought it.”
