The Imo State Police Command has taken into custody five individuals suspected of carrying out kidnappings in the Obinze, Avu, and Ihiagwa communities.

This comes just as the police reported rescuing a kidnap victim after an operation in August.

In a statement released on Wednesday, Force Public Relations Officer Muyiwa Adejobi named the suspect as Umaru Usman, Tukur Yau, Musbau Sabo, Abdul Ibrahim, and Jubrin.
