The Kaduna state police command says it arrested five suspected rail trail vandals at Dalle Village of Jema’a LGA and recovered two trucks loaded with locomotive railway sleepers.
Mohammed Jalige, spokesperson for the command, announced the arrest in a statement sent to TheCable.
Jalige said the command, on May 13, acted on reliable information, which led to the arrest of the suspects.
He said the suspects are currently undergoing interrogation and effort is being intensified with a view to identifying all people involved in the destruction of critical national infrastructure.
Jalige also made clarification on the video and pictures of a vandalised rail track circulating on social media platforms which was said to be the Abuja–Kaduna rail track.
“However, information available to the Command has it that the video and the pictures in circulation emanated from Enugu State where NSCDC Operatives of Enugu Command apprehended and equally paraded some rail track vandals. Hence, it shouldn’t be attributed to Kaduna – Abuja Rail track,” the statement read.
Jalige advised residents of the state and the general public to disregard the video in circulation linking the vandalism to the Kaduna rail track.
