“Their arrest was prompted by the suspicious movement of one of the suspects, Daniel Prince, who was carrying a cross bag.
“In Prince’s bag, the operatives discovered caps associated with the confraternity, leading to the immediate arrest of both suspects.”
The suspects have reportedly been transferred to the Commissioner of Police’s Special Squad for further investigation.
In the statement, RRS added that the suspects’ arrest reinforces the ongoing efforts of the state command to curb cult related activities and maintain law and order in the state.
