<p>In a significant breakthrough, the Kano State Police Command has dismantled a female-led syndicate of thieves with the arrest of five suspects. The principal suspect, 19-year-old Shamsiyya Adamu, a resident of Brigade Quarters Kano, was apprehended on December 21, 2024, following numerous reports of stolen mobile phones in the Unguwa Uku Quarters of Kano.</p><div class="bE02qsA7" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>Throughout 2024, the Kano State Police Command received multiple reports from residents of Kano Metropolis about a young woman involved in stealing mobile phones from residential houses. These reports indicated that Shamsiyya Adamu was aided by a tricyclist and a cybercriminal in her operations. In response, the State Commissioner of Police, CP Salman Dogo Garba, raised a special intervention squad which successfully arrested the principal suspect in December.</p>
<p>The syndicate, led by Shamsiyya, specialized in stealing mobile phones from residential houses, using a tricyclist and a cybercriminal to facilitate their operations. The suspects would deceive housewives, steal their mobile phones, and swindle money from their victims&#8217; bank accounts.</p>
