Chigalu alleged that the suspects had in their possession a carton indicating to have contained mesh that was bound for Philippines, through one of the courier services in town.<\/p>\n

\u201cUpon interrogation, the suspects alleged to have been given the parcel by a certain Nigerian national who is a close neighbor to the first suspect to send it abroad through that courier company,\u201d said Chigaru.<\/p>\n
