Others are a welder, Nnadozie Monday; and the gang’s tricycle rider, Godwin Uche. According to Punch ,their arrest followed a directive from the IG, Usman Baba, to the Abia State Commissioner of Police and the Commander- in-Charge of IRT to go after the killers of the businessman. Police investigations revealed that Agwu’s gang was so feared that some residents of Agbo Hill were afraid to report them to the police. Police sources said the suspects confessed to the killing of the businessman and also claimed responsibility for other criminal activities in Abia State including the kidnap of a pregnant woman.  Members of the gang told the police that they killed Ugwa after a failed attempt to kidnap him.  "We ride around in a tricycle and look around for flashy cars. Sometime in July, we were on patrol when we sighted him driving a flashy car and we trailed him," Nnadozie said while narrating how Ukwa was killed. "He noticed that we were following him and he drove quickly to his house. He jumped out of the vehicle with his two phones. One of us, nicknamed UC, shot him.  I was still in the tricycle but I could hear others blaming UC for the shooting and we escaped from the scene.” The IRT Commander, Tunji Disu, a Deputy Commissioner of Police, confirmed the arrest of the suspects.
