Barely 48 hours after two men were arrested with three stolen cows in the Abaji Cattle Market in Abaji Area Council of the FCT, two other men have also been arrested while attempting to sell two rams they allegedly stole at the Gwagwalada Cattle Market in Gwagwalada Area Council; of the FCT.

A witness, Shuaibu Ibrahim, said the suspects allegedly stole the rams from the residence of one Alhaji Rabiu Usman who bought them for the Eid el-Kabir at Unguwar Dodo in the metropolis of the council on Wednesday.

He said, "Alhaji Rabiu is my friend. I went with him to Madalla last week where he purchased the two rams and brought them home, but on Wednesday evening when he called to inform me that his rams had been stolen."

He further said, "Alhaji Rabiu alerted the ram sellers at the Gwagwalada Cattle Market about the missing rams. So, on Wednesday, at about 5pm he was called on phone to come over, that some people brought two rams to sell at the market. He rushed there and discovered that they were his rams."

Usman said vigilantes were alerted and that they came and took away the suspects.

The spokeswoman of the FCT Police Command, SP Adeh Josephine, was yet to confirm the incident.
