The Federal Capital Territory Police Command has arrested three suspects in connection to the mob action that claimed the life of a man who was wrongly accused of making the penis of one of the perpetrators vanish.
Emmanuel Danladi, who falsely claimed that his penis had vanished, had a medical professional confirm that it was still intact and functional.
The FCT Commissioner of Police, Haruna Garba, confirmed the arrest on Wednesday at the Command Headquarters while parading criminal suspects.
Garba said, “On October 15, following a distress call that one Alhaji Tijani Yakubu of Kabusa village was being lynched by irate youths on allegation of causing the disappearance of a male organ of one Emmanuel Danladi, police operatives from Kabusa Division swung into action and rescued the injured victim.
“Both the suspect and the victim were subsequently taken to the hospital for medical attention and examination, unfortunately, Alhaji Tijani was confirmed dead by the medical doctor on duty.
“However, the male genital of Emmanuel Danladi who raised the false alarm that his penis has disappeared was confirmed intact and active by a medical doctor. He is in custody along with two others who resort to mob action resulting in the death of Alhaji Tijani. The suspects will soon be arraigned in court.”
