The First Information Report (FIR) from the command states that a Bajaj motorcycle, bearing the registration number KWARA-BDU 103 VC, was stolen around 7:45 pm from its owner, Paul Rotimi, who resides in the Basin Area of Ilorin.

The case was reported by the owner, Olajesu Ibuanu of Babanla Street, Tanke, Ilorin.
Ibuanu further complained that the tracking device installed on the motorcycle showed it had been taken out of ilorin.
“During police investigations, the motorcycle was recovered from you Balla Muhammed (accused) at about 0900 hrs at Bida, Niger State while you were persuading one Suleiman to buy it but he declined interest as you could not produce any document of the motorcycle.

The accused were arraigned on criminal conspiracy, causing grievous hurt and theft.
