Two Mobile Police Corporals attached to MOPOL 31, Ogwashi-Uku, have
been arrested by the Delta State Police Command over alleged
involvement in the kidnap of one Efe Daniel Umukoro.
Vanguard reports that the suspects were arrested by members of the State Anti-Kidnapping Committee at Abraka.
The state’s House of Assembly had set up the committee to assist
security agencies in tackling issues of kidnapping in the state.
Acting Police Public Relations Officer in the State, DSP Andrew
Aniamaka, however, said the two police officers were arrested for
misconduct and illegal duty.
Identifying the arrested police officers as Oreva and Edom,
Aniamaka said the culprits were facing disciplinary action. He said the
two officers were being tried by the Command, adding that if found
guilty, they would be made to face the consequences of their action.
He said: “There is an alleged case of kidnapping, so we swung
into action and arrested them and upon investigation, we discovered that
it was a case of misconduct and illegal duty on the part of the
officers.
“A disciplinary action, an orderly room trial, is already going
on as we speak. They allegedly left their duty post and went to Abraka
to effect an arrest based on complaints by one Edubra, that Umukoro
Daniel Efe was owing him N50,000.
“The Divisional Police Station at Abraka was not even aware of
the matter, which was in its domain. The police authority will not spare
any member of the force who goes against the law.”
