The Police on Monday, February 5 neutralised a notorious bandit, Isa Dei-Dei in Abuja.
Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, in a statement issued on Wednesday said at about 1015hrs on the 5th of February 2024, operatives of the DFI-IRT, acting on intelligence, got information on the hideout of a notorious bandit group in the suburb of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), led by one Isa Dei-Dei and immediately proceded to the location for possible arrest.
He said: “Upon closing in on them, they sighted the police and fled. The operatives immediately went after them, which led to a fierce gun duel.
“In the process, the notorious Isa Dei-Dei was neutralised while other members of the syndicate managed to escape with gunshot injuries.
“We therefore urge members of the public, most especially medical practitioners, to call our attention to anyone or patients seen with gunshot wounds for further investigation.”
