The police command in Osun says it has detained eight suspects for prosecution over the alleged mutilation of a 16-year-old boy’s scrotum in Ikire, Irewole LGA.
“From the intelligence report we got, there is nothing we can lay our hands on that made the inmates escape. The NCoS should inform us about what actually happened,” said the police.
The enforcement is in compliance with Section 68 of the Insurance Act and sections 1, 2, and 3 of the Motor Vehicle Act, said the police.
The police have warned against the setting aside of August 8 (8/8) to celebrate cultism, saying any unlawful gathering would not be tolerated.
She said the suspect was arrested with the vehicle in Ilesa, Osun.
“Police operatives are, however, still inside the forest to rescue the kidnapped women.”
Some of the robbers were arrested in Lagos, Oyo and Ogun States, the police said.
