Police operatives in Ogun State have arrested a 49-year-old man, Ganiyu Shina, for allegedly bathing with bl@@d at a community river in the Kotopo, Odeda LGA of the state.
It was gathered that the suspect was reportedly arrested on Thursday, December 14, at Obantoko Abeokuta.
The command’s spokesperson, SP Abimbola Oyeyemi, in a statement said the suspect was arrested when members of the community sighted him at the river bank, where he parked his Nissan commercial vehicle, came out with a local sponge and a container filled with bl@@d and started bathing with it.
“Immediately he discovered that some people are watching him, he took to his heels but was chased and apprehended by members of the community.
A call was made to the police at Aregbe divisional headquarters by a member of the community, and the DPO, SP Bunmi Asogbon, quickly led the patrol team to the scene, from where the suspect was brought to the station.
On interrogation, the suspect claimed to have a spiritual problem, and that a herbalist instructed him to perform the rit¥al. He claimed further that the blood in his possession is not human bl@@d, but that of a cow.
The Commissioner of Police, Lanre Bankole, has directed that the remaining bl@@d should be taken for laboratory analysis, to ascertain whether is human bl@@d or not,” he said.
