A gang of notorious kidnappers, Umar Muhammad, 24; Audu Muhammad, 22; and Umar Danda, 22, have been arrested over the alleged abduction and murder of a 15-year-old cattle rearer, Yahu Muhammad, in the Imala axis of Ogun State.

The victim was said to be herding cattle in the Akara Forest, where he met his untimely death, even after a ransom of N500,000 had been collected by the kidnappers.

A statement issued by the So-Safe Corps Commander, Soji Ganzallo, through the Director of Information and Public Relations, Assistant Commander Moruf Yusuf, disclosed that the three suspected murderous kidnappers, all in their early twenties, have been arrested and handed over to the Imala Divisional Police Headquarters.

The statement mentioned that Muhammad's kidnapping occurred on Saturday, September 7, 2024, following which information reached the Imala Division of the Corps at about 7pm, and the Corps' Special Squad at Imala was deployed to rescue the victim unhurt.

Sadly, on arrival of the operatives at the kidnappers' den at Olodo Karaoke on the Anigbado-Idiemi Road, they discovered the lifeless body of the victim, while the cattle were left to wander in the forest without a herder.

The lifeless body of the victim was evacuated and handed over to the Imala Police Division, alongside the suspects, for further investigation and likely prosecution.
