Operatives of the Bauchi State Police Command have arrested a 20-year-old Sadiq Abubakar, for allegedly stealing a tipper truck worth ₦30 million from his father’s company, reports Business Today NG.
The State Police Command Public Relations Officer, CSP Mohammed Wakil, made this disclosure in a statement  made available to newsmen in Bauchi.
According to the statement, complaint of theft was filed at the police station on July 25 by Alhaji Rabiu Ahmad, CEO of Arabab Investment Limited, who alleged that unknown persons broke into his warehouse in Bauchi, tied up his security guard aged 65, and fled with the truck. The security guard was injured and was taken to the hospital.
The police after investigating the matter tracked the truck to Tabarakallah area in Kano State on July 29 and also arrested the driver, 38-year-old Sabo Alhassan. During interrogation, he admitted to having been hired by a car dealer, Abubakar Shehu to bring the truck stolen from Bauchi to Kano.
However, Abubakar Shehu maintained he purchased the truck from the son of the owner, a 20-year-old Sadiq Abubakar, who is currently a 200-level student of Capital City University, Kano.
“He (Abubakar) admitted to orchestrating the theft of his father’s tipper truck, valued at thirty million naira (₦30,000,000), and colluding with Abubakar Shehu, a car dealer from Kano State, to execute the plan. They are believed to have arrived in Bauchi around 10:07 p.m. intending to steal the truck,” the statement partly reads.
Both suspects are currently in custody, as investigations are still ongoing
