ZWEDRU, Liberia- Unknown men believed to be criminals have raided the Administrative Building here, the seat of the local administration of the southeastern Grand Gedeh County, making away with unspecified quantities of electronic appliance, air conditioners and other valuables.

The Administrative Building houses the offices of the Superintendent, Kai Garlo Farley, Liberia Revenue Authority, Ministry of Labor and other line ministries and agencies.

Officials said that the burglary happened on the morning of Thursday, November 17, 2022, before local government employees who were shocked when arrived and saw most offices broken into by some unknown criminals in Zwedru, Grand Gedeh County.

Offices broken into include office of the County Superintendent and several others.

It is yet to be established as to the damages done at the building and properties taken away, but the Criminals service department of the Liberia National Police Grand Gedeh detachment has launched a scientific investigation in the search of the doers.

Grand Gedeh County Inspector said that he and acting Superintendent, Paul T. Neeo, Sr. said in a local TV interview that this is just the latest in a series of burglaries suffered from the hands of criminals at the Administrative Building.

But he said that Thursday’s burglary is the biggest and the worst loss suffered by government offices so far from criminal activities in Zwedru.

Looking visibly disturbed, acting Superintendent Neeo appealed to the government of Liberia to help provide security for the administration building in Zwedru.
