The video, captioned āThese boys tried to kidnap a car dealer today at Ebute Igbogbo Road, Ikorodu,ā prompted Hundeyin to confirm the arrest of the three suspects, who have been in custody since the incident occurred.
Hundeyin added that efforts are underway to catch the two remaining suspects who fled, and that investigations have begun.
Reacting to the video, Hundeyin wrote, āThree suspects, Taiwo Olayinka 30, Azeez Sodiq 33 and Saheed Moonstruck 23, have been in our custody since yesterday, shortly after the incident, and efforts are on to arrest the remaining two suspects that escaped. Meanwhile, investigation has commenced.
Hundeyin clarified that the arrested individuals are suspected thieves or kidnappers, and the investigation will determine the exact nature of their crimes.
āThe three arrested are the suspected thieves or kidnappers (investigation would tell which).ā
