The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) police command has arrested three suspects for producing fake COVID-19 exemption tags in Abuja.

Spokesman of the command Anjuguri Manzah, in statement on Monday, said they were arrested following a tip-off.

Manzah said exhibits recovered from one of the suspects include one fake FCT COVID-19 exemption tag, eight fake Presidential Task Force exemption tags, two flash drives, one laptop, two fake police spy identity cards and some dried leaves suspected to be Indian hemp.

The suspects reportedly said they sold each of the tags for N1,500.
