In a case of mistaken identity, three men were arrested after they attempted to rob a plainclothes officer in Kratie town last Wednesday.

The men threatened to kill the cop with a knife if he didn’t surrender his moto, police said. The victim calmly took out his gun and told them he’s an officer.

The men panicked and hurriedly tried to escape but the victim’s fellow policemen caught them. DEUM AMPIL
