Ritual killing: Oyo police remove three mutilated corpses


The Oyo State Police Command on Tuesday removed the three mutilated bodies of youths who were murdered by yet-to-be-identified persons in Ibadan, the state capital.

One of them was beheaded, while vital organs were harvested from the remaining two bodies.

 

When contacted on the phone on Tuesday, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Adewale Osifeso, said the removal of the bodies was in public interest. Osifeso said, “Yes, the corpses were removed this morning (Tuesday). It was done in public interest, public safety and to prevent the spread of epidemic. Investigation has already commenced and update will be provided accordingly.”

A commercial driver, Abdulfatai AbdulGaniyu, said, “I saw the lifeless bodies in the morning when I was carrying passengers from Ojoo to Toose. The case looks like ritual killing because one of them was beheaded.”
