Police arrests suspected ritualist with human parts in Osun (PHOTO)

The police in Osun, has apprehended 40-year-old suspected ritualist, Adeboye Moshood.

The suspect was arrested on Tuesday, February 16, with human parts following an alarm by one of his neigbours who called the attention of others after perceiving the odour around the suspect’s house.

The suspect was said to have ignored the neigbours and took the sack away from the house and hid it in a nearby bush, when they confronted him.

The neigbours reported the matter to the JTF officials at Gbayarin, in Gbongan community, Ayedaade Local Government Area of the state which led to his arrest.

 

JTF officials discovered the sack where he hid it, found decaying human parts inside and arrested the suspect.

“We don’t know where Moshood got the human parts. We just perceived the odour and asked his wife what was smelling in their house. When Moshood realised that we were suspecting him, he took the bag out of the room and kept it at the backyard. That was where the policemen retrieved it.” said one of the neigbours.

 

But, the suspect told newsmen; “I went to Modakeke on Monday and while I was returning, I stopped at Iwaro when I saw a body on the road. I reasoned that some parts would be useful for me. Then I cut them out for money ritual.”

He was later paraded at the Police Command Headquarters in Osogbo with the human parts by the State Police Commissioner, Olokode Olawale.
