Shocking: Police Recover 9 Bodies In Secret Grave, Arrest Suspects (must read)

The Police Command has uncovered hidden graves with nine corpses of people suspected to have been killed by criminals in Gbatse village in Ushongo Local Government Area of Benue State.

The Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Catherine Anene, disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria in an interview on Thursday in Makurdi.

Anene said one suspect has been arrested, adding that ”As soon as we have concluded interrogating him, we will give out the full information”.

The report says that the suspect, a gang leader of a kidnapped and armed robbery syndicate, was arrested following a tip-off by members of the community.

The suspect and his gang were alleged of killing their victims and buried them after collecting their motorcycles in order to conceal their crime and avoid arrest.

One of the Ushongo town residents, who pleaded anonymity, said they had already uncovered over 10 bodies from different graves at different times, the report claimed.
