The Edo police command says it has arrested three suspects linked to the abduction of Abu Babatunde, an Edo-based medical doctor, and the murder of his brother.
In a statement on Sunday, Benjamin Hundeyin, police spokesperson, said the arrests followed sustained intelligence-led operations in Auchi and surrounding communities.
TheCable had reported how Babatunde and his brother were kidnapped in January, with the abductors demanding N100 million for their release.
While efforts were ongoing to raise the ransom, the kidnappers killed Babatunde’s brother.
Babatunde was later freed after N50 million was paid as ransom.
