10 suspected kidnappers nabbed inside Kwara forest

Kwara vigilance group on Tuesday paraded 10 suspected kidnappers who allegedly have been terrorising the Obbo-Aiyegunle/Ekiti axis of the State.

Their arrest followed a raid on their hideout in a forest where they allegedly keep their victims.

Daily Trust reports that the area in recent times had become notorious for kidnapping activities, with some of the victims found dead even after ransom had been paid.

Some of the dangerous weapons allegedly recovered from them included guns, knives and cutlasses among other weapons they used to perpetrate their crime.

The Kwara State Vigilante Commander, Alhaji Saka Ibrahim, confirmed the incident during a telephone chat.

“Seven were arrested on Tuesday while three were nabbed on Wednesday. But our men are still combing the bush. We will hand them over to the police when they come out of the forest,” he said.
