Operatives of the Lagos State Police Command’s Violent Crime Response Unit (VCRU) have arrested two suspected cultists terrorizing the Addo Road area of Ajah, Lagos.
The suspects were identified as Idris Rasak, 26, aka Aloss, and Ibrahim Kazeem, 25, aka Asunmo Kebe. Police said they were arrested following credible intelligence on their alleged involvement in cult-related activities within the area.
