kidnapping syndicate in the metropolis.

Division of the command arrested a suspected
member of the syndicate, which specialized in
threatening members of the public with text
messages of kidnap, with the aim of extorting
them.

being kidnapped.

them from kidnapping her and her
children.“Immediately the division received the
complaint, it began investigation into the
matter, which resulted in the arrest of Abiodun
