Among the recovered exhibits were nine mobile phones, three standing fans, three solar panels, one bicycle, and a flat-screen television. Other items included two bundles of wire, two burglary windows, three MP3 speakers, one small solar panel, one power bank, and three motor vehicle tyres. The spokesman added that these items were linked to different burglary incidents reported in the affected areas.
