guns, one G3 rifle and two vehicles were recovered from the suspects."
He also disclosed that an armed robbery suspect was lynched yesterday in Effurun by irate citizens.
He said the robbery gang was preparing to strike when they were caught at about 13.30 hours and following a distress call, the police stormed the God's Grace area, but one of them was already lynched by the time the police got there.
Muka said the second suspect was, however, rescued by the police, while two cut to size locally made guns, two live cartridges and one expended cartridge were recovered.
