Police in Gombe State has arrested four suspects with human bones.
This was made known by the Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Mahid Abubakar while chatting with journalists on Monday.
Daily Post report has it that the suspects were arrested following complaints from some residents of Taraba who they allegedly scammed.
“One Isa Musa of Bali LGA of Taraba State came to Gombe State to meet one Alhaji Auwal of Gombe, who is now at large, through one of their friends who said Alhaji will pray for them to see more success in their businesses.
“The said Auwal collected the sum of N650,000 from the complainants. After some time, the complainants, having seen no improvement in their businesses, demanded their money back,” he said.
He added that upon demand for their money, Auwal referred them to a 65-year-old Ibrahim Adamu of Dukku LGA in Gombe State and since then Auwal had been on the run.
One Ibrahim Adamu of Bagadaza Quarters, Gombe, was also arrested at Auwal’s house with some traditional charms, sand from a grave, one white cloth, which they use for their devilish work.
The police spokesperson said the police has intensified effort to arrest the keyman, Auwal.
More so, items recovered from the four suspects now in the police net included some human bones, sand from the grave, and other items for traditional charms and a piece of white clothes.
The force spokesman added that the suspects will be charged to court.
