The Kaduna State Police Command said its operatives have arrested four drug dealers with 50kg of cannabis at Unguwar Mai Hayi in Makarfi.
ASP Mansur Hassan the command’s Public Relations Officer, said a gun was recovered from the suspected drug dealers when the operatives raided their base.
Hassan in a press briefing on Tuesday in Kaduna stated that the arrest followed verifiable intelligence received from a good Samaritan in the community on December 4.
“On getting the information, our operatives mobilised to the area where four suspects were arrested and one locally made gun recovered in the house,” he added.
Hassan however said the police were on the trail of the principal suspect.
The command spokesman added that the four suspects would be prosecuted upon completion of the ongoing investigation.
