In Lagos, the police have made a significant breakthrough by capturing eight members of a dangerous criminal gang known for their brutal tactics, including assaults, theft, and sexual violence against victims.
Led by Commissioner of Police Adegoke Fayoade, this arrest marks a significant achievement for law enforcement. The operation targeted upscale areas like Lekki, Ajah, and Ikoyi, with ongoing efforts to apprehend other members who remain at large. The gang, composed of individuals aged 23 to 40, has gained notoriety for their heinous crimes.
Operating under the guise of offering job opportunities and real estate services, the gang lured unsuspecting victims to their rented apartments in affluent neighborhoods. Once trapped, victims endured torture to extract personal and financial information, as well as horrific sexual assaults.
Reports indicate the gang employed sophisticated methods, including luxury vehicles and fake advertisements in prominent locations like Lekki, Ajah, Banana Island, and Ikoyi, to target and exploit vulnerable individuals.
The successful arrest of these criminals demonstrates law enforcement’s dedication to combating crime and ensuring community safety.
“As soon as they are in possession of those personal facts, they swing into action by proceeding to his house or banks to empty his money and other valuables. The second round of their operation is to subject their victim to hours of anal sex which they take turns to have their fill. They usually record their exploits on video and later relax to view it while enjoying their loot.”
It was gathered that their criminal exploits were blown open after they succeeded in cornering and maltreating a relation of a mobile police officer. The enraged officer was said to have gone to one of the police stations at Lekki to lodge the report.
Based on this development, the Commissioner of Police, Adegoke Fayoade gave marching orders to his special squad to round up the criminals without delay.
The Special Squad, it was learned, succeeded in penetrating the gang and rounded up seven of their members including their oldest member said to be a lawyer.
Crime Guard learned that during interrogations, members of the gang who were looking unruffled stated boldly that their victims were healthy looking young and old men that will satisfy their sexual urge through the anus.
“They reportedly shocked detectives when they confessed that they had been operating for over three years and that they choose highbrow areas where they could easily track well nourished and endowed men.
Police sources said: “They were boasting to us about how many healthy looking men they have abused through the anus. They said they reject men that are not looking health, stating emphatically that they have no business with women. After their arrest, we confined them in separate cells so that they would not descend on our male suspects inside the cell.
“However, few days later, one of them raised alarm that the oldest member of the gang who claimed to be a lawyer was having same affair with a member of the gang. When we accosted him, he said the relationship had been going on since they have been operating as a gang.
“Our greatest problem now is that some members of the devilish gang have escaped and we strongly suspect that they must be carrying on with their devilish criminal acts wherever they are.
“We are spreading our dragnets and we are sure that very soon, we will round all of them up. I must state that if not for the swiftness with which our Commissioner directed the operation, many men in Lagos state would have been endangered species by now.”
