Suspected kidnappers arrested in Kwara community

Scores of suspected kidnappers were arrested Tuesday evening at Olayinka along Ajasepo/Igbaja/Oke-Ode highway in Ifelodun Local Government Area of Kwara State, DAILY POST reports.

The suspects allegedly fled Baba Sango after intelligence revealed that bandits’ informants were posing as beggars and roaming towns and villages across Kwara South Senatorial District.

Coordinator, Joint Security Watch Kwara South Senatorial District, Zubair Olaitan, confirmed the development to DAILY POST on Wednesday.

The arrest is part of the ongoing efforts by security operatives to combat crime in Kwara state.

“We got intelligence that bandits from Baba Sango and Oro-Ago are spreading out to other parts of Kwara South.

“One of their informants, disguised as a beggar, was caught in Igbaja yesterday.

“He spilled that his sponsors are operating from Kaara Market, Ajasepo, and Olayinka near Oke-Ode. He’s been handed over to Anti-Kidnapping Squad, AKS. Time for swift action,” Olaitan said.
