The Lagos State Police Command says it has arrested three suspects in connection with the murder of one Enoch Obaro in the Ikorodu axis of the state.
A statement by the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Bala Elkana, on Sunday revealed that the suspects were members of Aiye confraternity and had been on the police wanted list for various offences such as armed robbery, violent attacks, cultism and land grabbing.
“On the 03/12/19 at about 2030hrs, one Yemisi Obaro ‘f’ of No 5, Surulere Street, Agbowa reported at Agbowa Police Station that her husband, one Enoch Obaro ‘m’ 30years old left home in the morning and did not return. That all efforts made in tracing his location proved abortive.
“Message was sent to all police stations across the state through the Police Control Room to help in finding the missing person.
“On 08/12/19 at about 1430hrs, police received a call that the remains of the missing person were sighted at an isolated/bushy area at Fadayin junction, Imota, Ikorodu,” the statement read.

The command’s spokesman noted that the suspects would be charged to court.
