”They nabbed following a tip-off from good citizens on the nefarious act and men of the command quickly swung into action to arrest the suspects,” he said.

He said the consumption of unwholesome meat would have constituted a serious health hazard to the good citizens in the state.
“As as soon as investigation into the matter is completed, the suspects would be charged to court,” he said.
