Again, Imo Police Storms Kidnappers Hideout In Ogbaku, Kills Two, Arrests Suspects , Rescues Man\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Imo State Police Command is recording breakthroughs in its fight against criminals in the state, reports Trumpeta.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Weeks after a major haul which saw it dismantle notorious kidnap gangs in some parts of the state, another achievement was recorded. According to a release from the Police Force Headquarters, Abuja, while reeling out successes recorded recently, among the most significant breakthroughs was the dismantling of an inter-state kidnapping syndicate operating across Imo and Lagos states.<\/p>\n

Force PRO in the statement discloses that “On July 22, operatives of the Imo State Police Command\u2019s Violent Crime Response Unit stormed a kidnappers\u2019 hideout in Ogbaku, Mbaitoli Local Government Area, rescuing Donatus Emehara, also known as \u201cEhara,\u201d without injury.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“During the operation, two suspected kidnappers, Chinedu Asonna and Chisom Iroche, were neutralised, while Anyanwuocha Stanley was arrested. Follow-up operations in Lagos led to the neutralisation of three additional gang members identified as Ifeanyi, Kelechi Asonna and Chijioke, while the alleged kingpin, Chinonso Izuagu, 41, was arrested.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Only a few weeks ago, men of the Anti Kidnapping moved into Ohaji\/Egbema LGA of the state after crossing creeks to uncover camp of kidnapers and freed three victims while suspects involved in the act were apprehended.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
