*Searchlight on suicide bomber\u2019s identity, bombs origin, sponsors<\/p>\n

By Kingsley Omonobi<\/strong>, Abuja<\/p>\n

There are indications that two\u00a0 experts in improvised explosive devices from the United States (US) Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) may have arrived Nigeria\u00a0 to help the police unravel several disturbing angles in the investigations into the twin bomb blasts that rocked the Force Headquarters in Abuja on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Sunday Vanguard gathered that the arrival of the American experts, in the early hours of yesterday, was immediately followed with a briefing by the police investigating team comprising the Criminal Investigations Department of the FCT and the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) under the headship of DCP Alkali Baba Usman.<\/p>\n

The specific areas the\u00a0American terror experts are expected to beam their searchlight to help the Nigeria Police in the investigations, according to sources, include the true identity of the suicide bomber, believedto be a foreigner from Sudan, Somalia or Niger,\u00a0 and the manufacturer of the bombs.<\/p>\n

Police forensic experts had, on Thursday, after the blasts, collected the\u00a0 remains of the bomber and taken them to the laboratory for forensic analysis to determine his country of origin.<\/p>\n

The CIA experts are also expected to unearth the origin or source of the bombs as the police investigation team has concluded that the bombs were not locally made\u00a0 because of their devastating impact. The probe will also try to ascertain the sponsors of the Abuja incident.<\/p>\n

IGP wants accidented vehicles evacuated
\u00a0
Meanwhile,\u00a0\u00a0 following\u00a0\u00a0 repeated threats by the Islamic sect, Boko Haram, to unleash more bomb attacks in several parts of the country, the Inspector General of Police, IGP, Alhaji Hafiz Ringim, has ordered the immediate evacuation of all accidented vehicles from\u00a0 police stations and formations across the country.<\/p>\n

The IGP also directed that all exhibit vehicles connected with cases under police investigations be released to the owners on bond or taken to court.<\/p>\n

Speaking through the Force Public Relations Officer, DCP Olusola Amore, Ringim said, \u201cThis directive also enjoins owners of accidented or exhibit vehicles to approach police stations or formations where their vehicles are parked to seek for the immediate release of these vehicles within seven days.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cThe Police Force wishes to assure the members of the public who are having pending cases in Police stations or formations across the country not to see this order as attempt to infringe upon their fundamental human right but to decongest police premises which has become a dumping ground for accidented and exhibit vehicles.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe action of the Force is to ensure adequate security of all Police stations, formations and persons coming to report cases and to forestall any breakdown of law and order\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
