PUNCH Metro gathered that the fraudster was driving to a destination in Obiaruku around 5.20pm on Friday, October 28, when five policemen, who were on a stop-and-search duty, flagged down his vehicle.

Instead of parking, the suspect sped away, and the police, suspicious of his actions, gave after and eventually arrested him.

A resident who requested anonymity for security reasons stated that the police officers discovered a message indicating the demand for human organs while inspecting the vehicle.

“The instruction on the note was that the man should provide a human head, hand and leg. After recovering the note, the policemen asked what he wanted to use the specified items for and out of fear, he said it was for something.

“So, the policemen embarked on full investigation by visiting the Obiaruku Police Station to obtain a warrant to search his three-bedroom flat and while searching his house, they obtained another written note requesting the same items in the first written note that was found in his car,” the resident added.

The source stated that after the police discovered the notes, they detained the suspect, who stated that Ike requested the human parts during interrogation.

He explained that the next day, the suspect took police officers to the herbalist’s location, where a decomposed body was discovered alongside the fish pond during a search.

“The herbalist used nylon to cover the corpse and since the corpse was close to the fish pond, nobody perceived the smell because of the odour around the fish pond.

“The policemen took the Yahoo boy and the herbalist to the station and they were transferred to the state command for further investigation,” the source added.

In his defence, Ike was heard saying, “It was my child that was buried; I dug the grave and removed the corpse from where it was buried.”JAMB Result
