The Lagos State Police Command has confirmed the arrest of no fewer than 52 suspected cultists in Mushin during coordinated raids on identified criminal hideouts on Sunday.
Police spokesperson, CSP Benjamin Hundeyin, said the operation followed credible intelligence that some cult groups were planning to unleash violence during the so-called ‘7:7 Cultism Day’ — a date often marked by inter-gang clashes and reprisals.
He disclosed that the suspects were apprehended while allegedly preparing for coordinated attacks and are currently in police custody pending further investigation and prosecution. (TVC)
