BREAKING: Man Who Drove Off With Benz for Sale in Abuja Arrested in Delta

The Nigeria Police Force, on Thursday, July 6, arrested the ‘buyer’ who reportedly drove off with a Benz while test-driving it in Abuja.

A car dealer, Mohammed Manga, had raised the alarm that a suspect identified as Henry, disguised as a customer, absconded with the vehicle while testing it.

Mohammed said one of his friends, a car dealer, took the Mercedes Benz to a prospective buyer (Henry) for sale, but trouble started when Henry begged to test run the car.

The suspect has been identified as Meshack Sinuphro. He was arrested by the Command Decoy squad today in Benin City.

DSP Bright Edafe, PPRO Delta state, announced this in a social media post on Thursday, July 6.

“Suspect will be transferred to FCT command soonest. Always report crimes to the police, and we will always deliver,” Edafe wrote.

Police officers had earlier recovered the stolen N55 million Mercedes Benz GLB. It was recovered in Ughelli North Local Government Area Delta State seven days after it was stolen from Abuja.
