The Nigeria Police
College, Kaduna State, on Thursday said it found a robbery suspect among
recruits undergoing training in the college.
The commandant of the
college, Alhaji Sanusi Rufai, told newsmen in Kaduna that the suspect
was named by members of his gang after they were arrested by the police
in Abuja.
The commandant said
details of the suspect’s identity were forwarded to the college, which
withdrew, arrested and transferred him to the appropriate police unit
for investigation.
Rufai said the suspect was among 25 recruits the college disqualified for various inadequacies during training, News Agency of Nigeria reports. The commandant said some
of the students were found to have presented forged school results and
others had criminal records, “while some were withdrawn on health
grounds.”
“Some of the recruits
have sight or hearing challenges, while a few others did not attend the
schools whose certificates they presented,” he added.
Rufai said the college
would continue to screen “unfit persons” out to ensure that only those
with good character were allowed to train as policemen and women.
