Incredible....
It just blows me away at how often
our police do their job. Dailypost, reported a news that a Nollywood Actor and
his gang, was arrested by operatives of the Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad,
for the kidnap of a female banker at Mile 2 area of Lagos.
They reported the
news like this-’the actor, who has reportedly featured in movies like; ‘The
Eves, Friday Night, Witches Club, Palace Club and Mountain High’.
The news went
further to reveal where the ‘culprits were said to have kept their victim in an
uncompleted building in Mowe, Ogun State for four days, while they waited for
a response from the captives’ family’.
The Commissioner
of Police in charge of the squad, Chris Ezike, confirmed the news the suspected
kidnappers, their arrest and the victim rescued.
Hear him: “The
suspects were six in number. But three are on the run and we are on their
trail. During interrogation, the actor said six of them came in a Toyota
Corolla car and immediately they saw their target coming out of her Toyota
Camry car, they pointed guns at her and drove her to their hideout in Mowe.”
“They also sold
their victim’s jewellery for 8,000 and her pair of shoes for 3,700. He
also stated that his share of the ransom was 450,000, but did not disclose how
much they got, as the bargain was done between Jack and the victim’s family.”
The suspects have
been reportedly charged to court for kidnap and robbery.
Haven said that,
what stops the police from reviling the identity of this Nollywood actor and
his crime gang to the public? What concerns the public about the movies he
appears on? Was this a form of advertisement or what?I also want to make an observation,
the police said that the ‘suspects’ have been charged to court! What are the
names of the ‘suspects’ that were charged to court?
This
is an example of those cases we hear about where the police grab a suspect and
make the evidence fit him instead of following the evidence to the actual
criminal/perpetrator .It worries me how many people are locked up and have even
been executed, who are completely innocent. The question I will love to ask is
that is our police protecting the criminals at the expense of the public? This Nollywood
actor is a risk to the public at large and his names must be made public.
