According to SP Yemisi Opalola, the state police spokesperson; at about 9:30pm, a distress call was received from a hotel management where the suspects lodged. The management said a girl screamed twice and after that, no noise was heard again from the room. According to them the scream was like a girl calling for help.

According to the management when the guys were about going, they were asked to be escorted back to the room to see if everything was fine and why the girl they came with wasn't leaving with them.

The ritualists said everything was fine and the girl was resting in the room, that she was going to be out. But the hotel management insisted, even though they tried to escape, the hotel management were smart enough to had locked the premises and pinned them down. That was when they were able to gain access in the room and saw a pool of blood with some body parts removed from the lifeless female body which they tried escaping with in a bag, the spokesman said.

That was when the distress call was made and the police responded immediately to the emergency call which led to their arrest.

During interrogations by the police, the suspects both confessed to the crime saying they have killed more than 70 girls. They claimed to specialise in slitting female body parts of their victims which are then supplied to one Abefe Sadiq for Six hundred thousand naira each. 

On how their get their victims, they said; "we lure them with money and fancy things. Girls of these days are easily lured with those things. All they need to do is to get or rent a fancy car with cash they would spend on the girls, and that is all take.
