Two suspected kidnappers, Sunday Chukwu and Chidokwe Efide, have been arrested by the police for allegedly kidnapping a businesswoman, Maris Ibe, in Delta State.
The suspects were rounded up after collecting N1m ransom to free the victim kidnapped on January 14, 2021, around Ibori Golf Club, Asaba, the state capital.
City Round learnt that the victim petitioned the Inspector-General of Police, Adamu Mohammed, after her release and operatives of the IG’s Intelligence Response Team were deployed in Delta State to hunt down the kidnappers.
The detectives reportedly recovered three locally-made guns, an axe, 10 unexpended cartridges and a sum of N320,000 from the suspects.
