Community source said the hoodlums usually surfaced from their bush hideout, brandishing their weapons and forcing their victims out of their vehicles.
He said, “The victims thought that it was a robbery operation only to be led into the bush. They were coming from wedding when the kidnappers blocked their vehicle and took them away.”
The Police Public Relations Officer Onome Onovwakpoyeya, who confirmed the incident on Tuesday, said the crime occurred between Delta and Edo boundary, but added that the part where the incident happened was in Edo State.
