The Abia State Police Command has busted a syndicate involved in the stealing and selling of stolen babies in Aba.
Already, the police have arrested three members of the syndicate, and rescued three babies, who were about being sold. The syndicate, had operated unnoticed for several years within People’s Road axis of Ogbor Hill, Aba North Council Area.
The syndicate was allegedly managed by a man, identified as Black, and assisted by two women, among other agents.
It was gathered that a woman, who purportedly bought a little boy from Black, had taken the kid to the popular School Road area of Ngwa Road market, where the child was identified by a relation who knew his real parents. The boy had earlier been declared missing, and had not been found prior to the outing with his abductor .
According to sources close to the market, the relation had raised the alarm, which attracted a crowd that apprehended the suspect, who while pleading for her dear life, referred the mob, to People’s Road in Ogbor Hill, where she claimed to have bought him from one Black, and his assistants.
On hearing the story, youths in the community, engaged in a search, and discovered three other children being hidden in the syndicate’s hideout, and invited the police after alerting the traditional ruler of Ogbor Community, Eze Samuel Egege.
However, Abia State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) Geoffrey Ogbonna, could no be reached as his phone was said to be unreachable.
