At least seven persons have been arrested by the Ogun state police
command in connection with the attempted murder of three brothers, who
were kidnapped in the state on Wednesday.
The hoodlums invaded Ayegbe village, near Lisa community in Ifo Local
Government Area of the state and whisked away the trio of Saheed
Owolabi Sosanya, Gbenga Soyemi Sosanya and Abiodun Soyemi Sosanya to
Sonde village.
It was gathered that since the ugly incident, the police at Sango
Area Command have declared a village head, identified as Ogunsola Wasiu
and some others who were the evil minds behind the attack on the village
wanted.
A close police source while confirming the incident said that the
heavily armed gang stormed the village and launched a bloody attack on
the people working on a building site in the community. The armed men
inflicted injuries on many of the labourers in the site before abducting
the three brothers.
However, the kidnapped brothers were taken to Oro Shrine at Sonde
village where they were tied for hours. Fortunately for the Sosanyas,
the men of Agbado Divisional Police station came to their recue after a
distress call from concerned persons.
More after the jump.
Recounting his ordeal, one of the victims, Abiodun said, “We were on
site when two Volkswagen Vanagon buses drove into the village and before
we knew anything, about 50 people, armed with cutlasses, guns and other
dangerous weapons jumped out of the buses and started shooting.”
“We all ran in different directions. I heard many people shouting but
at the end of the day, three of us were captured and beaten thoroughly,
before we were tied and taken to the Oro shrine at Sonde village,” he
added.
Abbey, as he is fondly called by friends claimed they narrowly
escaped death as their abductors headed by one Ade Ijaiya were already
making plans to behead them before the timely arrival of the policemen
from Agabdo police station.
The police invasion disrupted their evil plans, thus, the people in
connection with the incident, Ganiu Ogunsola , Ade Ijaiya, and others
were taken away in the police van.
