“The suspect who has confessed to being a member of the gang, say they sell one handkerchief containing the blood and brain of their victims for N500,000 to highly placed Nigerians."

The officer added that on further interrogation, the suspect confessed that their customers place so much demands on them that they had to meet up with the demands by all means because they pay up immediately they deliver.

He added that the suspect said many members of the gang are spread all over Lagos waiting for an opportune time to strike.

"The police is now investigating the veracity of that information and we have engaged in joint operations with the Rapid Response Squad (RRS), Department of State Services (DSS), Lagos State Task Force, the Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) and local vigilance groups to raid the dreaded group’s black spots at Igbobo/Bayeku, Ibeshe, Ijede and Imota at the weekend," the police source added.
