Interrogations revealed that some of the suspects were linked to cult activities, a growing security challenge in Lagos Island and other parts of Lagos State. Following initial questioning, one adult and three teenagers were transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department (CID) for more in-depth processing. They were escorted by both a police officer and an LNSC officer to ensure proper handling.
The Lagos State Neighborhood Safety Corps continues to collaborate with local police divisions to curb youth violence and cult-related crimes in the state. Authorities urge residents to remain vigilant and report suspicious activities promptly.
