ARREST OF A SUSPECTED CULTIST AND RECOVERY OF FIREARM
The Divisional Police Officer Ajuwon has arrested the leader of the Alora cult and confiscated a firearm found in his possession during a routine search inside the vehicle he was driving at the time of his arrest.
On January 9, 2025, at about 3:30 PM, Ajuwon police officers were conducting a lawful patrol and performing stop-and-search duties along the Akute/Olambe road when they received information from the public regarding two men suspected to be inside a Venza car with dealer number URSMOT AUTOS 4657DLA.
Immediately the information was intercepted, the officers pursued the vehicle, which was eventually stopped in front of the Osaro Mobile Filling Station.
One suspect, identified as Abiodun John, a 25-year-old male from the Olori area of Akute, was arrested, while another suspect remains at large.
During the search of the vehicle, two locally-made pistols and three live cartridges were discovered in John's possession.
Preliminary investigation has commenced, and the suspect has been taken to the station along with the seized items, and the case will soon be transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department, Eleweran, Abeokuta for further investigation after preliminary inquiries.
