“At the bush bar, one live silver like 7.63mm ammunition was recovered.

“The following exhibits were recovered in the apartment: Two (2) locally made pistol, one (1) battles axe, one (1) long cutlass, five (5) customized Aiye pillows, one (1) customized centre table with Aiye logo, one (1) AK 47 expended ammunition, necklace used as a body protection charm, two (2) HP Laptop, six (6) iPhones, two (2) suspected stolen Lexus car keys, one (1) original and a duplicate copy.

“The said Oritseusen Fenemigho equally led the team to Idimi Osobo under Okere Urhobo where they recovered the suspected stolen car,” said the Command in the statement.
