Two men arrested for being in possession of carbonized human skull
In a
statement released, the Commandant of the Corps, David Akinremi, said the two
suspects identified as Busari Aliu and Adetayo Segun, were arrested
on Sunday, November 20 in the Agunboye Ijebu-Igbo area of Ogun State. According
to him, the suspects specialize in exhuming corpses at the Agunboye
burial ground, removing the skulls, and later selling them to other members of
their ritual gang.
The
statement in part reads
“On November 4, one Ibu Benjamin of
Ayegbami quarters, Agunboye Ijebu-Igbo reported at Amotekun office at
Ijebu-Igbo that, on the same date, he discovered that one heavy iron pallet
valued at N350, 000, a property of his landlady, Mrs. Idowu, kept within the
precincts of a fenced farm and a house yard at Agunboye was stolen by unknown
persons.
Consequently, operatives of the
corps embarked on intelligence activities with a view to getting those behind
the crime.
Their
efforts paid off on November 20 with the arrest of these two suspects, Busari
Aliu and Adetayo Segun, who not only admitted their involvement but led our
operatives to recover the stolen item where it was kept.
On searching the house and premises where the item was recovered,
some pieces of a carbonated human skull were recovered.
During
interrogation, the suspects confessed that they dug into so many graves in
Agunboye burial ground and removed several skulls of buried corpses which they
sold to some other members of their ritual gang.''
