Security operatives deployed by the state
commissioner of police, Abdulmajid Ali, have arrested 120 suspected
cultists at various locations in Ogun state.
Agbara police last week arrested 84 suspected cultists in a forest at Imoshe, Igbesa, Ogun state while the cultists were initiating new members.
A statement issued by the command and signed by the state police spokesman, DSP Muyiwa Adejobi, said three other suspects were also apprehended at Ilaro by policemen on anti-crime patrol on Monday, August 31, during their meeting in a hideout.
In a related development, working on a tip-off the Special Anti Robbery Squad in Ogun state raided another group of cultists, who called themselves the Seadog, at Ijeja area of Abeokuta on Tuesday, September 1.
Some of the items recovered from them included assorted charms, bottles of dry gin, broken bottles, and materials meant for the initiation process.
They have confessed to the crime and Commissioner Ali immediately ordered that the suspects be handed over to the Department of Criminal Investigation and Intelligence, Eleweran-Abeokuta, for proper investigation and prosecution.
