Police spokesperson, Bright Edafe, who confirmed the arrest, said a child of the victim reported at Obiaruku Police station that on their way back from the shop at about 2030hours, three masked men, armed with guns, accosted them at the entrance of their house and kidnapped the mother.
According to him, the police team was fully armed with relevant information, and thus embarked on an intelligence-led investigation, which paid off on August 4, as the operatives arrested one Kabi Kester, ‘m’, 43. “They all confessed to their involvement in the abduction and named three others: Uche , Chinedu Etudo, and Nweke as members of the gang. An intensive manhunt for the other gang members is ongoing.”
