In the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) of Nigeria, law enforcement authorities have reported the arrest of 13 individuals suspected of armed robbery. This operation was conducted between February 10 and February 12, following numerous complaints from victims who had encountered robbery incidents on the Kuje-Gwagwalada road. The arrests were facilitated by collaboration with Giga, a forensics firm that specializes in providing intelligence support to law enforcement agencies.

The situation report, dated February 13, highlighted how the police used technology to track down the suspects. By analyzing phone numbers linked to victims, Giga's forensic team assisted the police operatives, known as the Scorpion Squad, led by Victor Godfrey, to successfully trace the suspects. The strategic use of digital tools emphasizes the evolving methods in crime fighting, showing how modern technology can enhance traditional policing efforts.

In addition to arresting the suspects, the operation resulted in the recovery of a stolen vehicle, as well as arms and ammunition that were believed to have been used in the robbery incidents. This operation not only showcases the police's proactive approach towards tackling crime in the FCT but also raises questions about ongoing challenges related to armed robbery in Nigeria. The collaboration with forensic experts highlights a trend where law enforcement agencies are increasingly relying on technology to combat crime and improve public safety.
