Despite the tight security at the Police College in Ikeja area of the Lagos State Command, some dare-devil robbers invaded, burgled the place, carted away some items and escaped without any form of resistance.

P M.EXPRESS reports that the incident shocked the management of the College when they woke up and discovered that the robbers may have stormed the place at 12am and carted away those items.

Some of the items included OX fans, mattress and aluminum window frames and glasses for the buildings and offices and among other items.

When the Police realized the theft and the embarrassment it has caused the entire Police Force in Lagos State Command, they moved into action and arrested four suspects namely Jerry Andrew, 31, Abdulraman Supi, 27, Babangida Ahmed, 20 and Saliu Muhammad, 35.

Though, the suspects have denied any involvement in the burglary, they were charged before the Ogba Magistrates Court for conspiracy and stealing.

They pleaded not guilty. 

The prosecutor, Inspector Emmanuel Ajayi, asked the Court to give a date to enable the Police to prove that the defendants actually committed the alleged offence.

The Presiding Magistrate, Mrs. A.S. Odusanya, granted them bail in the sum of N200,000 with two sureties in like sum.

They were remanded in Correctional Centre at Kirikiri town pending when they will perfect their bail conditions.
