The Lagos State Police Command’s Rapid Response Squad (RRS) has intercepted a Toyota Camry 2010 model stolen in Abuja.
In a statement released, the RRS said the automobile went missing three days after it was delivered to the owner on Sunday, October 10.
According to RRS, the woman’s driver drove to Lagos after dropping her at a church in the Garki area of the nation’s capital. The culprit, identified as Bamidele, sold the automobile for N500,000 in Marwa Ghetto, Lekki.
The buyer, identified as Abiodun, was heading to Sango in Ogun State after depositing N120,000 with Bamidele when officers stopped him. After serious interrogation, it was discovered that the car was stolen.
The RRS confirmed that the owner had been contacted and the vehicle was handed over to the station where she lodged a complaint.
