The Department of State Services (DSS) has arrested two of its operatives,  while the Nigerian Army has equally nabbed one soldier in connection with a robbery that took place in a bureau de change.

Opuiyo, in the release, said while three of the DSS staff are now at large, the military authorities have commenced a detailed investigation of five of its personnel involved in the crime.

Preliminary investigations, he said, have revealed that Abdulrasheed Ahmadu Maigari of the DSS, conspired with four  other colleagues of his, namely: Solomon Inusa, Peter Okoye, Patrick Ishaya and George Mwatapwa Ibbi, to carry out this reprehensible act.

He said the five military personnel were led by one Capt. Hussein Ishaku Mshelia.
