Operatives of the Ogun State Police command have arrested four individuals, suspected to be cultists, responsible for the killing of a barber at Isale Oja Kuto, Abeokuta, the state capital on Wednesday.
It was gathered that the state Commissioner of Police, Abiodun Alamutu, disclosed that the arrest is coming, following another attack by a rival cult group over the weekend, in which a 48-year-old Point Of Service operator, Fatai Kehinde was killed under the Kuto bridge.
According to PUNCH, the POS operator, popularly known as Faity and the son of the Baale of Kuto Community, Abeokuta, was reportedly butchered by his assailants, who chased him from his shop inside the Kuto market down to the bridge.
