At least eight of the stolen sewing machines were recovered from the suspects at the time of their arrest on December 23.<\/p>\n
On December 18, thieves broke into the offices of the youth development center, known as Maison des Jeunes Kimisagara, located in Gitega Sector, Akabahizi Cell, Gihanga Village and stole the eleven machines meant for vocational training. <\/p>\n
Chief Inspector of Police (CIP) Emmanuel Kayigi, the Central region Police spokesperson, said the two suspects were intercepted by Irondo (local night patrol) and handed over to Police.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe two suspects admitted to being part of the group that stole the eleven sewing machines. They said the machines were shared among all members of the ring, so we are still searching for their accomplices,” CIP Kayigi said.<\/p>\n
Rwanda National Police (RNP) and Rwanda Investigation Bureau (RIB), CIP Kayigi said, are working together to recover the remaining machines.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the spokesperson also asked members of the public, who might have lost their laptops, television sets and other electronics to go to the metropolitan in Remera to see if they are among those recovered in various operations. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
