Thieves have reportedly stolen the mobile phone of the visiting Secretary-General of the World Muslim League, H.E. Dr. Abdullah bin Abdulmohsen Al Turki in Abuja.
Sources said that the Saudi Arabian who is in Abuja for the International Islamic Conference on Peace and Nation Building lost his mobile phone after leading Friday's Jumaat prayers at the National Mosque on Friday.
According to a security source, the theft is suspected to have occurred after the Jumaat service when many dignitaries and worshippers struggled to make contact with the distinguished scribe, causing a security breach in the process.
“Despite tight security for him, some thieves made away with the handset of the Executive Secretary of the World Muslim League.
“The theft occurred after the Jumat prayer session suggesting that there was breach of the security wall at the National Mosque. Some smart guys took advantage of the relaxed atmosphere to strike.
“This incident created an embarrassment for the cleric, diplomats and most of the dignitaries that accompanied him to the service.
“The visitor from Saudi Arabia was shocked and embarrassed. No one could explain how it happened,” said the source.
Meanwhile, investigations are on by security agencies to fish out the culprit behind the theft of the mobile phone.
“All the agencies have swung into action to arrest those who perpetrated the act. They will get the brains behind the incident. I cannot confirm whether or not any arrest has been made but we will crack this case to correct any misgivings,” said a source knowledgeable about the investigations.
