Two cousins from David To­by Road, Cunu­pia, were de­tained by of­fi­cers of the Spe­cial Op­er­a­tions Unit (S.O.U.) af­ter a stolen ve­hi­cle was dis­cov­ered on their premis­es.

The op­er­a­tion, led by As­sis­tant Com­mis­sion­er of Po­lice (ACP) Richard Smith, took place on Tues­day evening as part of on­go­ing search­es un­der the Emer­gency Pow­ers Reg­u­la­tion 2024.

Dur­ing the search, of­fi­cers found a sil­ver Nis­san Wingroad with false num­ber plates. Fur­ther checks re­vealed that the ve­hi­cle had been re­port­ed stolen from the St. James area on Jan­u­ary 8, 2025.

The two sus­pects were tak­en in­to cus­tody as in­ves­ti­ga­tions con­tin­ue in­to the mat­ter. Au­thor­i­ties again urge the pub­lic to re­port any sus­pi­cious ve­hi­cles or ac­tiv­i­ties to as­sist in curb­ing ve­hi­cle-re­lat­ed crimes.
