unleash mayhem in the area.
The area which is known for its tight security was invaded by robbers
on Monday night during the
Eid-el-Fitri celebration causing terrible havoc
despite the rain that fell almost all day.
Vanguard reports that the robbery operation took over three hours. The armed robbers attacked residents, stabbing at least three people during the raid.
The
robbers reportedly who took time to burgle shops, supermarkets, smashing windscreens of cars parked, while carefully avoiding houses were they could be caught by security.
The robbers reportedly carted away valuables including money, phones,
laptops etc while a 25 year old man was said to have received a machete cut- parting gift from the armed robbers. He was said to have sustained injury to his head and back but was quickly taken to a
nearby hospital immediately the robbers left.
