Edo Security Arrests Father, Son in Kidnapping Gang Bust
Edo State Security Corps (ESSC) operatives arrested a father and son for allegedly kidnapping a farmer in Lgue-Ero, Lwu, and Lzakagbon areas of Ovia North East LGA. The suspects abducted the farmer days ago, collected ransom, but were tracked down by security forces. During the operation, the victim recognized one suspect as his shooter. Three suspects, including the father-son duo, were apprehended and handed to police for further investigation. The ESSC continues bush combing operations following Governor Okpebholo's directive, as the gang is linked to previous killings in the region.
