The Niger State Police Command has apprehended a man for the alleged theft of two female horses in Chekungi village, Bida Local Government Area of the state.
According to the Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Wasiu Abiodun, the arrest came as a result of a report received by A Division Bida.
The incident was initially reported when two female horses were discovered missing from a farm at Chekungi village on Sunday, October 3, 2023, around 9:11 am. The stable housed approximately five horses.
The complainant suspected Ahmed Abubakar Aliyu of Zaria, Kaduna, who had been visiting the farm for horse grooming and racing. Consequently, the suspect was arrested directly from the farm.
During questioning, the suspect confessed to the crime. He had moved the two stolen horses to a nearby bush from the farm. Later, he arranged for a vehicle to transport the horses to Kaduna at a cost of N100,000.
The horses were eventually located at Mararaban-Jos, Kaduna, where they were placed in the care of another vehicle for their return to Bida.
