Again! Police Parade Another Ritualist With Human Body In Osun
The Osun State police command on Friday paraded one Kabiru Oyeduntan for allegedly killing a yet to be identified lady in Apomu, Isokan local government area of the State.
This was coming barely 48 hours that five persons were paraded for ritual killing at the police headquarters in Osogbo, the state capital.
The victim was killed at Agunla Junction, Apomu on Thursday evening.
She was said to have come to sleep in his boyfriend’s house who happened to be the prime susoect in the crime.
Oyeduntan, in his confessional statement said the lady was killed for the purpose of using her for money ritual by his friend simply identified as Akin (O’clumsy) Alupaida
Akin was said to have run away with some severed parts of the victim having realised that Oyeduntan had been arrested by the police.
“It was my friend that brought the lady to my place from Ibadan. But he already told me that he wanted to do money ritual. He sought my assistance and promised to give me N50,000 which I agreed.
“When he was having sexual intercourse with her, I assisted him to hold her two legs and he then strangulated her to death.
“Akin was the one who dismembered the lady’s body. He removed heart, private parts and took them away.” Oyeduntan confessed.
Addressing journalists, the State Commissioner of Police, Wale Olokode said the suspect was arrested based on tip off from members of the public, adding that crime would be reduced to barest minimum with cooperation of the public.
He urged members of the public continue to cooperate with the police in fighting crimes and criminality.
