The Lagos State Police Command have arrested two men for
allegedly stuffing N1.5 million abandoned by fleeing armed
robbers into their private parts.
Adegoke Adewale and Ganiyu Idowu were caught on Thursday
evening by the operatives of the Rapid Response Squad, the
police said in a statement on Sunday.
The police said they were in hot pursuit of three armed
robbers who had allegedly snatched N3 million from a yet to
be identified bank customer in Oshodi.
The suspects, whom the police described as Agberos (area
boys), among other miscreants had pretended they were
assisting the police in the chase before the fleeing robbers
ditched their loot.
“The robbers after being chased by the police dropped their
loot in a compound, which the suspects stole and stuffed into
their private parts,” the statement said.
The police said the robbers, who carried out their operation
with a motorcycle, were armed with “short pistols” and one of
them was arrested while the two others escaped on foot.
“The suspects as well as the recovered loot have been
transferred to Makinde Police Station in Oshodi,” the
statement said.
“Also recovered along with the loot were 3 cheque booklets of
Diamond and Zenith Banks, several signed cheques and
counter signed cheque leaves.”
Reacting to the incident, the Lagos State Police Spokesperson,
Dolapo Badmus, said the police would apprehend the fleeing
robbers.
