A 20-year-old girl is now in Police net for allegedly simulating her kidnap, in connivance with her boyfriend, in Ogun State.

Spokesman of the State Police Command, Abimbola Oyeyemi who made this known, said the suspect, Tohebat Adebayo, was reported kidnapped on the 27th of September at Lafenwa Police Station by her parents.

Oyeyemi said they complained that the girl left home to Lafenwa market, while she did not return home only for them to be called on phone by an unknown man who informed them that their daughter has been kidnapped.

He added that they said the man then demanded for the sum of #200,000 as Ransom.

Oyeyemi said the Divisional Police Officer in charge of the Police Division, kayode Ayilara then led his detectives on a technical investigation of the case which led them to an abandoned house inside the GRA where the girl was being kept.

He added that the discovery led to the arrest of 30-year-old Afolabi Ogunremi, who happened to be the security man in the house.

The Spokesman said on interrogation, Adebayo claimed to be the boyfriend of the girl and that they both planned to simulate her kidnap in order to raise money for her forthcoming Birthday from the parents.

He added that the State Police Commissioner, Ahmed Illiyasu, has ordered the immediate transfer of the case to anti kidnapping and cultists unit of criminal investigation and intelligence department for further investigation, while he advised parents to train their children properly so that they will not become embarrassment to them later.
