Two convicts, Adebayo Adesanya and Olansile Abdulateef, have again been arrested by the Osun State Police Command for allegedly using fake bank transfers to purchase foodstuffs and clothes in Ede same day they were released from prison.
Addressing journalists at the police headquarters in Osogbo, the Command’s Police Public Relation Officer, Yemisi Opalola while addressing journalists during parade of the suspects in Osogbo said the suspects were earlier arrested in September 2024 charged to court and remanded at the Ilesa Correctional Centre for two months.
Yemisi said two months later, the very day they were granted bail at the court, they went and committed the same offence of purchasing rice/vegetable oil with fake transfer alerts where nemesis caught up with them.
The command advised traders to always verify customers sales transfers with their bank apps to avoid being scammed.
Other suspects were paraded for attempted murder, illegal possession of arms among others.
Opalola said all suspects would be charged to court after conclusion of ongoing investigations.
