Yesterday, the police in Lagos arrested Babatunde Bamidele , 25, and Idowu Balogun, 27, two members of a 5-member armed robbery gang that specialises in disguising as sick persons to rob patients in hospitals. They’re arrested at Ajangbadi while rubbing one of the hospitals in the area.
The State Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni, said: “The gang would pretend as if one of them was injured with plaster pasted on his stomach and rushed him to hospital screaming for help, but immediately they were allowed into the hospital, they would bring out their guns and rob every patient in the hospital of their phones, money and other valuables.”
