The Kano State Anti-Phone Snatching Force has arrested a suspect, **Usman Sulaiman** of Dorayi Quarters, for allegedly robbing a commercial tricycle rider in the Panshekara area of Kano.
The task force’s spokesperson, Ibrahim Garba Ahmad, said the suspect was apprehended after the tricycle operator reported that he was allegedly robbed of his day’s earnings of N16,000 along New Panshekara Road.
Ahmad stated that the Commander of the Anti-Phone Snatching Force, Nura Salisu Sharada, ordered an immediate investigation after receiving intelligence on the incident, resulting in the suspect’s arrest.
While in custody, the suspect reportedly expressed remorse, attributing his alleged criminal actions to drug abuse.
“The drugs I take make me lose control of my senses and push me into doing things I would not ordinarily do,” the suspect was quoted as saying.
Usman also claimed that he took only N2,000 from the tricycle rider, contrary to the N16,000 initially reported.
The Anti-Phone Snatching Force said the suspect has been transferred to the appropriate authorities for further investigation and possible prosecution
