Suspected Ritualist Caught Severing Head of Corpse from Grave Site in Abeokuta

A 45 year old suspected ritualist, Lekan Akinyemi, is now in police net, for allegedly cutting off the skull of a corpse from a grave in Abeokuta, the Ogun state capital.

The suspect was arrested by detectives from the Adatan Police Station last Sunday.

He was accused by one Nojeem of vandalizing the grave of his late father at Isale Itoku, and cutting off the head for an alleged ritual.

The incident took place within a family compound.

Spokesperson of the state police command, Omolola Odutola, said the suspect would be transferred to the state criminal and investigations department for investigations.

The PPRO, in a follow-up conversation with our correspondent, disclosed that an investigation had commenced into the matter and the suspect would be prosecuted upon conclusion of the ongoing investigation.

Lekan Akinyemi was caught in the act and the case will be handed over to the Anti-Robbery Unit for investigation before transferring it to the State CID.

The Commissioner of Police, Abiodun Alamutu, has directed a discrete investigation into the matter. The suspect will be prosecuted after the conclusion of the ongoing investigation in accordance with the law.

She, however, assured residents of the state of the police commitment to combat crimes and criminality, while urging the residents to desist from ritual killings.

The truth is that nobody can make money from ritual, it is only a myth. People should desist from ritual killings because if they are caught, the law is there to deal with them, Odutola concluded.
