Police Nab 3 Suspected Kidnappers In Lagos

The Lagos State Police Command has disclosed that three suspects have been apprehended over their alleged involvement in kidnapping at Ebute Igbogbo Road in the Ikorodu area of Lagos.

It was gathered that the suspects were caught by people in the community while trying to perpetrate their acts before handing them over to the police.

The State’s Police Spokesperson, SP Benjamin Hundeyin said that the suspects attempted to kidnap a car dealer at the area on Tuesday before they were caught by vigilant residents.

He stated, “Three suspects, Taiwo Olayinka, 30; Azeez Sodiq, 33; and Saheed Moonstruck 23, have been in our custody since yesterday, shortly after the incident, and efforts are on to arrest the remaining two suspects that escaped.”

He added that the investigation has commenced on the case.

However, in a viral video, the trio were seen stripped naked with blood dripping from parts of their boody while being locked at the back of a Toyota Venza Car.

Netizens have reacted to the alleged assault on the suspected kidnappers for being stripped.

An X user, @lovedcarefuklly posted, “Why the Jungle Justice? The one using his leg to kick them, would he stand them on a normal day?

“Why do we behave like this as a people?

“What a way to treat a human being! We deserve our leaders. They can keep oppressing everyone because THEY CAN.
