Osun Police Arrests Adeleke Over Alleged Robbery, Cultism

The Osun State Police Command has arrested a 23-year-old man, Adeleke Sodiq for alleged robbery.

According to the Command’s spokeswoman, Yemisi Opalola, Sodiq was detained for allegedly robbing a man named Joseph Wusu at the Technical College area of Osogbo.

Opalola added that Sodiq, who was suspected of belonging to a secret cult as well, was detained by members of the command’s Anti-Cultism Squad in response to a report made by the victim.

“The suspect and his gang members have been terrorizing residents by forcefully withdrawing money from their accounts.

“The suspect and his accomplices accosted Joseph on the road, compelled him to open his phone, checked his account balance, and forced him to transfer N150,000 to them.”

She claimed that the suspect had admitted to the crime that the police had charged him with.

She did, however, say that Sodiq’s escaping friends will be detained and charged.
