The suspect who was arrested by police operatives attached to the Ago-Iwoye Police Command on Monday 12th of February, 2024 and paraded alongside his 28-year-old cousin. They were paraded on Thursday by State Commissioner of Police, Abiodun Mustapha Alamutu at the Ogun State Police Command headquarters in Eleweran, Abeokuta, Ogun State capital.
Alamutu said Christopher who took part in the kidnapping activity in Pankshin, Plateau State, thought he could escape the arms of the law by fleeing to Ogun State.
He said for security reasons, he would not give detailed information about Yaro but the Command had contacted the Plateau State Command and he would be handed over to the Plateau State Police Command.
Yaro’s cousin said he had asked him to go away when he learnt from his uncle in Abuja that he was involved in a case of kidnapping. He claimed that Yaro still came to meet him at work where the police arrested both of them.
