Two bullion vans have been impounded by the police in Lagos for moving cash without security escorts.
The bullion vans, intercepted by operatives attached to the Area J command, Ajah, were said to be loaded with money belonging to commercial banks.
Lagos Commissioner of Police (CP) Hakeem Odumosu had counselled officials of banks and cash-in-transit (CIT) to always observe standing operating procedure to prevent security breaches, the vans, linked to bankers’ warehouse, proceeded without security to much large sums of money.
