The Nigerian police have denied that gold worth N700 million was stolen from the quarters of the Inspector General of Police. A petition sent to Amnesty International had said the stolen jewellery belonged to Principal Staff Officer 3 to the IGP. But the police on Wednesday denied the allegation. A statement signed by the spokesperson for the police force, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, noted that the Force successfully dismantled a cartel dealing in jewellery worth billions of Naira obtained from armed robbery operations in Abuja and its environs.
