Adamawa State Police Command has debunked the reports that 13 members of vigilance operatives and another 20 of its members have been injured in the cause of fighting crime within two months in Adamawa State, maintaining that the news was mischievously conceived and a calculated plot to cause panic and undermine the progress the police has made in combating crime in the state. 

This was made known in a press statement issued by the state Police Public Relations Officer, Sulaiman Nguroje, yesterday.
