“We condemn the evil act and urge security agencies to apprehend perpetrators of the sacrilege, their sponsors and collaborators.”

Mr Lalong said the action would not only ensure the administration of justice , but also serve as a stern warning and deterrent to criminals, who remained  determined to cause chaos in the country.
