The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has intensified its crackdown on vandalism, arresting five suspected vandals and recovering stolen public infrastructure during operations across several parts of Abuja.

According to the Command, the recovered items include drainage covers, solar-powered street lights, armoured power cables and communication cables allegedly removed from public facilities.

Police said all recovered assets have been handed over to the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) for immediate reinstallation to restore damaged infrastructure.

He warned that all those involved in the vandalism chain, including individuals who purchase stolen public assets, would be identified, arrested and prosecuted in accordance with the law.
