Tuesday, September 10, 2024 - A 15-year-old cattle rarer has been killed by a gang of kidnappers in the Imala axis of Ogun State.
The victim identified as Yahu Muhammad, was
said to be herding cattle in the Akara Forest, where he met his untimely death,
even after a ransom of N500,000 had been collected by the kidnappers.
A statement issued by the So-Safe Corps Commander, Soji
Ganzallo, through the Director of Information and Public Relations, Assistant
Commander Moruf Yusuf, disclosed that the three suspected murderous kidnappers,
all in their early twenties, have been arrested and handed over to the Imala
Divisional Police Headquarters.
The statement gave their identities as Umar
Muhammad, 24; Audu Muhammad, 22; and Umar Danda, 22.
The statement mentioned that Muhammad's
kidnapping occurred on Saturday, September 7, 2024, following which information
reached the Imala Division of the Corps at about 7pm, and the Corps' Special
Squad at Imala was deployed to rescue the victim unhurt.
Sadly, on arrival of the operatives at the
kidnappers' den at Olodo Karaoke on the Anigbado-Idiemi Road, they discovered
the lifeless body of the victim, while the cattle were left to wander in the
forest without a herder.
The lifeless body of the victim was
evacuated and handed over to the Imala Police Division, alongside the suspects,
for further investigation and likely prosecution.
