Police intercept vehicle stuffed with military uniforms

The Delta State Police Command has apprehended a suspect following an interception of a vehicle loaded with military camouflage uniforms, boots, hats, as well as cartons of suspected Tramadol and other illicit drugs. The green Toyota Sienna, registered as KP 527 AAA, was stopped by members of the command's anti-cult unit in Asaba along the Onitsha-Ondo route on Friday.

The Public Relations Officer, Bright Edafe, informed that the team acted upon credible intelligence that the vehicle, driven by Isaac Urji, 45 years old from Abia State, was transporting illicit drugs and military equipment. Upon searching the vehicle, they recovered cartons of suspected Tramadol and other illicit substances, along with military camouflage uniforms, boots, and hats.

The suspect was promptly arrested, and investigations are underway to trace the source and destination of the seized items and identify others associated with the consignment.
