Kwara cultist beaten by mob dies
An alleged cultist, popularly called Kunle Poly, has been
confirmed dead by doctors at the University of Ilorin
Teaching Hospital after he was beaten to a pulp by a mob in
Ilorin, the Kwara State capital.
Our correspondent gathered on Thursday that before the
intervention of policemen, the mob had planned to set him
on fire.
They accused Kunle Poly of kidnapping four people and
turning them to goats.
An eyewitness, who identified himself simply as Tunde, said
Kunle Poly and two of his fleeing accomplices had gone to
Abayawo-Oko, a village in the outskirt of Ilorin and allegedly
kidnapped four people.
He stated that villagers, who saw the suspects while
abducting their victims, chased them with motorcycles.
Luck was said to have run out on the suspects when two of
their car tyres burst on Temidire Street.
The eyewitness said while Kunle Poly was apprehended by
the mob, two of his accomplices escaped.
He added that the mob beat Kunle Poly to a pulp and was
about to lynch him when he was rescued by policemen
from Surulere Police Station and another team from the
Special Anti-Robbery Squad.
The state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Samuel Okaula, who
spoke through the command’s Public Relations Officer, Mr.
Ajayi Okasanmi, confirmed that Kunle Poly was beaten to a
pulp by the mob, adding that he was later confirmed dead
by doctors at the UITH.
He said, “An alleged notorious criminal was caught by
members of the public. Eight goats were found in his car.
We have information that the suspect had been a notorious
criminal. He is called Kunle Poly, Nobody knows his real
name.
“By the time the people were trying to mete out jungle
justice to him, policemen were invited and they rescued
him. The vehicle and the goats in it had been taken to the
police station while the suspect was rushed to the Civil
Service Clinic because he sustained injuries. He was
rejected at the hospital, but was later taken to the UITH
where he was confirmed dead.
“On the issue of turning human beings to goats – as far as I
am concerned, it is not practically possible for human
beings to turn to goats. Goats were found in his (Kunle
Poly) car. The allegation was that he stole those goats. As a
common criminal, somebody who is known for crime, the
anger of the people overtook them and they started to deal
with him.”
The CP stated that on Sunday, March 27, at about 6.30pm,
there was information that in the Opomalu area of Ilorin, a
boy, identified as Daniel, was shot.
He added that on Monday, March 28, about 3pm, suspected
cultists killed a farmer, Salami Idowu, in the Adapata area.
According to the CP, Kunle Poly was suspected to be among
the attackers.
