There is pandemonium at Obadeyi bus-stop, Ojokoro axis of the Lagos-Abeokuta expressway, as an alleged ritualist was apprehended by residents in the area.
PREMIUM TIMES gathered that the suspect was caught when passers-by overheard the voice of a woman allegedly kidnapped by the suspect and his accomplices.
Police officers at the scene could not control the crowd who are bent on lynching the suspect.
A witness, Adesola John, said passers-by overheard the voice of the allegedly kidnapped woman and began to comb the bridge on the expressway where the suspect was found.
“A woman was crying for help and people heard her voice and searched under the bridge before they found this man,” he said.
“The woman has not been found and, as you can see, we are still searching.”
Another witness who pleaded anonymity said there may be many victims trapped underneath.
Search is ongoing at the time of this report.
One day for the thief, another day for the owner. I’m not in support of jungle justice, but some of these miscreants don’t deserve mercy. They are naturally ruthless and should be treated same way.
