An Islamic cleric, Oluwafemi Idris, has been arrested by police operatives in Ondo State after being caught with fresh human parts in the state.
The Idrisc was nabbed alongside two other suspects identified as Samuel Kutelu and Babatunde Kayode in the Akoko axis of the northern senatorial district of the state.
According to the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) in the state, Funmilayo Odunlami-Omisanya, the suspects were apprehended following an intel received over the ritualistic activities of the cleric.
The PPRO disclosed that, upon a raid of the cleric’s residence, police operatives discovered a grim collection of human body parts in his possession. The recovered items included human hands, three kidneys, three hearts, a spine, and a tongue.
The police spokesperson added that detectives are on the trail of a fleeing suspect, whom Idris claimed supplied the human parts as well as three human heads, which he had earlier supplied.
Odunlami-Omisanya, however, stressed that the identities of the suspects and the particular location of the arrested will be revealed in due course in order not to jeopardise ongoing investigations.
“The police got intel from a reliable source in January 2024 that one Idris, popularly known as Alfa in his area, kept human parts in his house and intended to use them for ritual purposes.
“The police swung into action and apprehended the suspect. A search was conducted in his house at Akoko, and the following human parts were found in his possession: human hands, three kidneys, three hearts, a spine, and a tongue.
“The suspect claimed he is an Islamic cleric, and some of the human parts were supplied by his friend, an Alhaji, who is also a cleric, and one Samuel Kutelu, while he supplied one Babatunde Kayode (an Oluawo) with three human heads.”
