Unknown Gunmen in their numbers have attacked the Imo state Correctional services using dynamites and other heavy explosives before gaining entrance and released some inmates in the center.
The hoodlums also attacked the Police State Headquarters Owerri while firing consistently with AK 47 rifles and explosives, released some suspects detained in the SCID cell and put fire on so many vehicles parked at the Headquarter premises including the SCID office building. The onslaught lasted for several hours.
The information surrounding the destruction is still sketchy as no group has claimed responsibility.
