Policeman suspected of gunrunning ‘commits suicide in detention’

by Akan Ido

DSP Nambol Audu, the officer-in-charge of the police armoury in Kaduna has reportedly committed suicide.

Audu, who was recently arrested and detained after he allegedly stole guns from the armoury was said to have killed himself while in police custody.

Sources said he was found dead in his cell, with blood stains all over his abdomen.

Umaru Shehu, the Kaduna State Commissioner of Police, confirmed the death.

Shehu said, “Police officers on guard suspected foul play and immediately stopped the vehicle from leaving the premises. Upon interrogation, the officer could not give satisfactory account of his action.

“This led to his arrest and the two other occupants of the vehicle, one Zingkur Joseph of Trade Centre, Jos, and Samuel Adamu of Kuru, Jos-South Local Government Area of Plateau State.

“During a search at the spot, 11 G3 rifles already concealed under the vehicle’s seat were recovered,” the police commissioner said.

Shehu added that further investigation revealed that one of the two civilian suspects is a blacksmith who specializes in manufacturing locally made firearms.

“The two suspects came from Jos, Plateau State, on arrangement to purchase the said firearms from the armament officer at the cost of N400,000,” he said.
