Four members of a notorious kidnapping syndicate have been arrested by men attached to the Delta State Police Command.
The State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Celestina Kalu, while disclosing how the alleged kidnappers were arrested said: “On June 2, the DPO of Oghara Division arrested Ovie, Peter, Emmanuel and Idoro, and handed them over to the Special Anti-Kidnapping Squad Asaba for consolidation of investigation.
“The suspects were arrested in connection with incessant incidents of kidnapping in Oghara and environs. Investigation into the case yielded positive results as the suspects confessed their membership of a kidnap gang and said their armourer was one Felix and that one Kehinde usually provided vehicles for their operations.
“Based on their confession, on June 3, at about 2a.m., operatives swung into action and arrested the said Felix and Kehinde at Sapele town.
“Items recovered from them include one locally-made pistol and three live cartridges. Meanwhile, investigation is going on,” he affirmed.
