The police, on Thursday, promised to apprehend every suspect
behind the evil perpetrated at the kidnappers’ den uncovered last Saturday.
The Assistant Inspector General of Police in charge of Zone
11, Femi Omolaja, gave the vow in Ibadan when he visited the site at Soka in
Oluyole Local Government area of Oyo state.
Omolaja, who said he was in Ibadan on the order of the
Inspector General of Police Mohammed Abubarkar, noted that all those earlier
arrested in connection with the criminal activities associated with the site
will be prosecuted.
"Thorough investigation is ongoing and we don't want to
disclose any identity of those arrested in order not to hinder our
investigation" he said.
The senior police officer thanked the people of the state for cooperating with the police command and exercising patience since the
forest was uncovered last Saturday.
He urged them to report any suspicious movement to the
security agents.
Omolaja also appealed to the public to desist from taking
laws into their hands, saying they should instead report to the law enforcement
agents when they suspect any one of evil act.
He informed that the authorities decided to stop the
demolition of structures within the ‘evil forest’ as a strategy to allow
thorough investigation into the matter, adding that the demolition will be
executed after the forensic experts complete their job on the site.
