vizboy: The Benue State Police
Command, yesterday, arrested
the pastor of a new generation
church in Katsina-Ala (names
withheld) for illegal possession
of fire arms and assault on the
church's accountant.
Vanguard gathered from
sources that the pastor was
apprehended with the firearm
by men of the Benue State
Special Anti Robbery Squad,
SARS, in Katsina-Ala where he
allegedly tried to kill the
accountant of the church, Mr.
Philip Toryila, during a serious
disagreement over money.
According to our source,"the
incident occurred on Tuesday
evening when the pastor
ordered the church accountant
to handover church monies to
him for execution of a project
and he refused.
"The refusal of the accountant
angered the pastor who
engaged him in a fracas and in
the process pulled out a gun on
the accountant.
"In the process, the accountant
shouted for help which attracted
the attention of another church
official who alerted the police
and they quickly drafted some
armed men of the squad to the
place and arrested the pastor."
The source added that "the
accountant sustained a major
facial injury and other parts of
his body and was quickly rushed
to a private hospital in Katsina-
Ala where is now receiving
treatment."
Confirming the story, Police
Public Relations Officer, PPRO,
Deputy Suprintendent of Police
Daniel Ezeala, said: "The arrested
pastor was brought to the state
command and he will soon be
charged to court for illegal
possession of firearms but we
are still conducting
investigations into the matter."
