A suspected ritualist was arrested yesterday after severed human parts were found on him after he tried to apprehend a woman who was miraculously saved by a passer-by. The passer-by also demanded to see what the suspect had in the cellophane bag with him, but he declined and made to flee before the man forcefully tore it only to find different human parts.
The man raised an alarm which attracted a crowd from the nearby cement factory to the scene. The crowd mobbed him and almost killed him before police came to his rescue.
At first, he pretended he was mentally deranged, but when he realised the crowd won’t stop lynching him, he begged for forgiveness and said he was ready to confess.
He confessed he belonged to a five-person syndicate who have been operating in the Ewekoro axis for the past nine months.
When their den located in Iyana Egbado Village, along Abeokuta-Lagos Expressway, Ewekoro Local Government in Ogun State was visited, human parts sliced into pieces, plastic containers filled with human blood, ladies under-wear, shoes, knifes, blood stained dresses, and a duvet were found there.
The Ogun State Police Command Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi, however confirmed the incident and said investigation was on-going, but appealed to members of the public to avoid public lynching of suspects.
