SUSPECTED RITUALIST ARRESTED IN OGUN STATE WITH THREE BLOODIED FEMALE UNDERWEAR

An indigene of Warri, Delta State, Felix Ikpeha, has been arrested by men of the Ogun State Security Network, otherwise known as the Amotekun Corps during a stop and search operation by personnel of the security outfit.

The 30-year-old man was arrested for being in possession of three bloodstained female pants in the Imo-Ayo community, Ajibawo Atan-Ota, in the Ado-Odo/Ota Local Government Area of Ogun state.

This was made known to newsmen on Thursday, in a statement released by the state Commander of the corps, David Akinremi. He said the suspect was arrested following an alarm raised by some members of the community, who suspected his movement.

He said, “When the suspect was searched, three wet bloodstained female pants were found in his possession, for which he could not give any satisfactory explanation.

“He (suspect), however, claimed to have removed them from dustbins, but insisted he did not know the exact location where he picked them from.”
According to him, the suspect has been transferred to the police for further investigation and possible prosecution.

The commander also disclosed that the corps arrested eight suspected fraudsters for allegedly swindling unsuspected members of the public out of N15m.

Akinremi identified the suspects as Hadi Ibikanmi (20), Hounkpe Stephen (29), Ayinla Ibikanmi (23), Lepe Omoniyi (26), Olabisi Opeifa (29), Sulaimon Yakub (25), Samuel Ayerin (24) and Juliet Maderubami (28).
