The Ondo State Command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has paraded two operators of an alleged illegal filing station in Ore, Odigbo Local Government area of the state.
The State Commandant of NSCDC Mr Pedro Awili, who paraded the suspects before newsmen on Monday in Akure, said the suspects were the owner of the station and the Manager.
Awili said they were arrested on Dec. 19 through intelligence information received from the Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment, Akure.
He said that the Weights and Measures Department of the ministry found out that the filing station contravened government regulations for the establishment of a filing station.
The commandant alleged that the filing station operators also broke a government seal order earlier executed on them.
He warned owners of such filing stations in the state to desist from such act.
According to him, the suspects will be charge to court upon completion of investigation of the case.
