The Imo State Police Command, assisted by some vigilante locals, have discovered a kidnapper’s underground 8 bedroom den in a deserted building.
The hideout, located in Umuchima Village, Okwu Autonomous Community in Ikeduru Local Government Area of Imo State, is used by suspected kidnappers to harbour their victims.
The State Commissioner of Police, Abdulmajid Ali, while parading the suspects, disclosed that the underground hideout, with 8 bedroom, was discovered through intelligence network and collaboration of the vigilante men. He also noted that “it took the police over 3 hours from Owerri, the state capital, through the thick bush and untarred road to get to the kidnappers’ den.
The villagers, who spoke to newsmen, said they were neither aware of the underground den nor the nefarious activities that were carried out in the compound until a kidnapped victim who escaped from the dungeon in the middle of the night narrated his ordeal. They said the statue in front of the building was that of the owner of the building, one Mr Simeon Mpieri, who died 24 years ago.
The police boss further hinted that the buildings will immediately be confiscated and demolished. He vowed that the command will stop at nothing until Imo state is free of kidnapers.
A month ago, the state government had given directives that all abandoned property or uncompleted would be taken over by the government, so that such places are not turned into an operational base for criminals.
Good job. But is this guy saying that he counted the victims and it was difficult to tell if they were 2 or 3? If he'd said 20 or 30, I'd understand why he can't give a definite numbers
