The FCT Police Command says it has found as untrue the alarm raised by some residents in Abuja that their organs were missing.

The FCT Police Commissioner, Haruna Garba, said the alarm was found to be untrue after medical examination was conducted on each of those who raised the alarm.

Garba made this known while briefing journalists  in Abuja on Tuesday.

According to him, the 14 persons involved in the false alarm were currently being prosecuted following the confirmation of their lies.

He said, “They are being prosecuted for giving false information and inciting public disturbances.

“The false alarm had also misled the Police in dealing with mob action which were carried out against more than 10 accused persons in the FCT in the past few weeks.”

Garba said the command was informed of more than 10 cases, mostly around Garshi, Gwagwalada and the Kwali areas of the FCT, adding that some of these escalated into mob action by the youths.

The police chief, however stated that no life was lost in the reported incidents.

“The FCT Police Command has recorded over 10 cases of alleged disappearance of male organs across the territory and the escalating incidents of mob action by irate youths.

“It took the intervention of the Police Command to prevent the loss of lives and property and restore law and order.

“Fourteen suspects who claimed that their male organs had disappeared were taken to the hospital where the medical doctor confirmed that their organs were intact and active.

“Consequently, they were charged to court for giving false information and inciting public disturbance,” he said.

Garba however appealed to FCT residents to warn their wards and children to desist from raising false alarm or they would face the consequences.

The police chief also urged them not to resort to jungle justice or mob action as innocent lives may be lost in the process.
