The Command’s Public Relations Officer , Abimbola Oyeyemi, who confirmed the arrest, said the suspects were responsible for series of previously exhumed corpses within the Ijebu-Ososa community of Odogbolu local government area of the State. Oyeyemi explained that Police detectives attached to the Odogbolu Divisional Police Headquarters had got wind that the suspects were planning somewhere within the town to carry out another round of human parts harvest, hence the Divisional Police Officer in the area, CSP Godwin Idehai, mobilised his men and stormed the suspects’ hideout where five of them were apprehended.
“On interrogation, the suspects made confessional statements that they were actually into the business of exhuming corpses from their graves, and that they used to sell parts of such corpses to their standby buyers who need it for money making rituals,” the PPRO stated.
