Four young men were arrested on Friday for theft of armoured cable at the Annex complex of the National Assembly, Abuja.
The culprits were arrested by officers of the Sergeant-at-Arm in the early hours of Friday, June 27, 2025.
They were subsequently detained at the SPU office of the Annex complex for questioning, before being taken to custody.
Reports said that the culprits, last week, dug out some of the installed armoured cable from the scene of the incident, before charting away the items.
Apparently emboldened by their success, the culprits returned to the complex in the early hours of Friday to carry the remaining part of the armoured cable before they were nabbed.
The cable theft incident happened barely 48 hours after one young man identified as Police Sergeant was arrested at the main car park at the front of the White House of the National Assembly complex.
The Sergeant, according to some staff, had worked at the National Assembly a few years ago before being redeployed to another beat.
Meanwhile, the cable thieves have been handed over to the police for necessary action.
