Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Imohimi Edgal, has confirmed the arrest of ten suspected killers of one Sergent Collins Isiabo at Ifako-Ijaye area of the state.

According to Edgal, the Sergent was killed seven days ago when a police patrol team was attacked by an irate mob at College Road, Ifako Ijaiye in Ogba, Lagos State.

During the attack, the Sergent with service No. 260326 was attacked and killed while the police patrol vehicle conveying the team was also vandalised by the rampaging mob.

Edgal said the incident was shocking to the command because it had a good working relationship with the community.

He said among the suspects was their herbalist who helped to extract a bullet from the principal suspect following the injury he sustained while struggling to take the deceased policeman’s rifle, saying the principal suspect had been traced to a town in Ondo State and would be arrested very soon.

Edgal said one of the suspects revealed to the police during interrogation that they were members of the dreaded, Aiye, cult, saying investigation also revealed that the suspects were returning from where they had gone to bury a member whom they thought had been killed by the police and decided to attack the patrol team.

He however, their member had died when he sighted the police and tried to escape, saying he missed his step and fatally injured himself.

The Police Boss said investigation into the case was ongoing with a view to arresting other suspects still at large, appealing to the youth and Lagosians to always seek redress from platforms provided by the command.

He said several people had used the platforms to seek redress and got justice, advising that this was a civilised society and that the command would not allow people to get involved in jungle justice.
