Police Arrest Prison Fugitive Behind Army General’s Murder
Men of the Federal Capital Territory Police Command have arrested Hashiru Baku, the mastermind behind the murder of late Brigadier General Harold Udokwere.
The deceased who was the National Chairman, Retired Members of the Nigerian Armed Forces, was murdered by armed robbers who invaded his Abuja residence on June 22, 2024, and took away his gun.
The police arrested and paraded Ibrahim Rabiu, Nafiu Jamil, Aliyu Abdullahi and Mohammed Nuhu in connection with the crime on June 24, 2024.
Earlier today, the FCT Commissioner of Police, Bennett Igweh, announced the arrest of Baku and said the suspect who is a fleeing Kuje prison inmate was arrested in Kano State while trying to flee Nigeria.
“I did show you the four killers, kidnappers, and robbers that went and killed Brigadier-General Uwe Harrod, retired. Today, I will show you the organiser of the killing and the robbery. As well as we have recovered the general’s gun that was with him. We have recovered the wristwatch of the general and the wife’s jewellery which they stole from the general’s house.
The organiser is here and we have arrested him. He is the organiser. He was in prison and during the Kuje Correctional Centre attack, he escaped.
Instead of him to repent, he continued with more audacity. We arrested him in Kano where he was trying to exit the country.
We recovered these drugs in his residence. So, that’s what they take and they will continue to be high.”Igweh said
