The police have arrested three additional suspects allegedly involved in the multiple blasts in Nyanya and Kuje, two satellite towns in the Federal Capital Territory, that claimed about 20 lives on October 2,2015.
The suspects were paraded on Thursday at the Special Anti-Robbery Squad Headquarters in Abuja, where several bomb-making materials recovered from them were also displayed.
The police had earlier announced the arrest of Abdulazeez Muhazab, Ishaka Salihu, but the force paraded five suspects including Mohammed Jimoh, Abdulwaheed Nasiru and Abdullahi Nasiru who were apprehended at various locations in Abuja.
A police source said the suspects, who were between the ages of 26 and 34, were picked up in three locations, adding that a special task force investigating the bombings traced the masterminds to Karamajiji village along Airport Road, Abuja.
“On further investigation after the arrest of the first suspect in Karamajiji, other suspects were picked up in Iddo village, also along Airport Road and Gaulaka area in Suleja, Niger State,” the source said.
He also said the suspects have confessed to being part of a terrorist group with intention of carrying out bombings around Abuja.
He added that the bomb-making materials were recovered from two of the houses used by the terrorists, while other accomplices mentioned by the suspects are still at large.
The suspects were later arraigned at the Federal High Court in Abuja on five counts bordering on terrorism, conspiracy, accessory to acts of terrorism and act preparatory to an act of terrorism.
Meanwhile, a Joint Taskforce comprising the personnel of the police, Department of State Services, the military and Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps have arrested about 30 suspects during a raid at a black spot in Nyanya.
