The Nasarawa State Police Command has arrested six suspects in connection with alleged kidnapping and cult-related offences, according to Punch Nigeria. The command said four of the suspects allegedly planned to kidnap and kill a victim. The available material does not identify the victim or state when or where the alleged plan was made.
Two other suspects were arrested over a cult killing, according to the report. It does not provide the name of the person who was killed, describe the circumstances of the death or say whether the suspects have been charged. The police command’s account distinguishes the arrests into two groups: four suspects linked to an alleged kidnapping-and-killing plan, and two linked to a cult killing.
No further information is supplied about their identities, the evidence gathered or the stage of the investigations. The report also does not state whether the suspects have made statements, appeared in court or been remanded. The allegations remain attributed to the police command.
