Following an increase in complaints from residents regarding burglary and theft incidents, the command, along with sister security agencies, intensified raids and patrols of criminal hideouts, leading to the arrest of the culprits responsible for the homicide, along with thirty other syndicate members.
Among the recovered exhibits were a knife and five cellphones of different makes. One of the suspects, identified as Mohd Garba A.K.A Sara Dikko, confessed to the homicide, stating that he and Ibrahim Mohd A.K.A Boy broke into a house, stole cellphones, and during their escape, he used a sharp knife to stab the victim who almost caught him.

Additionally, it was noted that many of the arrested culprits had previously served imprisonment terms for similar offenses. Discrete investigations have commenced for subsequent prosecution, and the command urged members of the community to support security agencies by providing useful information about any suspicious movements and criminals' hideouts.
