LAGOS MAY 23RD (URHOBOTODAY)-The Ogun State Police command has recaptured a female kidnapping kingpin who broke the jail in Oyo prison and escaped.
The Commissioner of Police, Abdulmajid Ali, paraded the suspect, 33years old Adebisi Babatunde before newsmen at the office of the State Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS).
The suspect was a member of a notorious kidnapping syndicate who kidnapped a businessman in Abeokuta one year ago. Their gang successfully secured an N10million ransom from their captor’s family.
Adebisi and the native doctor who prepared charm for the gang was captured by detectives in Ogun command and jailed while other members of the syndicate escaped with their loots.
According to the suspect, “I am an ‘Agbo’ seller from Ibadan. So some Igbo guys came to me to do juju for them. So I took him to my native doctor whom he opened up to and requested for charm that would help them carry out kidnapping successfully without being caught.
“The Baba produced the charm for them. They went and carried out the kidnapping operation and made big money. But they shared me N750, 000. 00. The man they kidnapped was one Mr. Bode Debo and I learnt that they were paid a ransom of N10million from the kidnapping operation; I was cheated by my gang. I was married with three children but my husband died in a car accident.
“I planned to open up a shop with my share of N750, 000.00. My gang members ran away but myself and the native doctors were arrested. We were in jail over one year awaiting our trial in Oyo prison when myself and my female friend broke the jail with a master-key and ran away.”
Ogun police boss said his men were still on the trail of the escapees and pledged that the suspect would be charged to court for jail breaking and kidnapping.
