The Edo State Police Command has arrested two suspects for allegedly threatening to burn down a house and kill its occupants.
The command’s Public Relations Officer, SP Moses Yamu, disclosed this in a statement issued on Friday in Benin City.
Yamu said that the two suspects in their 30s were detained for investigation over the alleged offences.
“On October 8, a complaint was received from one Evelyn Akpan that on September 30, an unknown person sent her text messages threatening to burn down her house and assassinate her entire family if she did not pay the sum of N1,500,000.
“Operatives of the command, through proper intelligence, tracked down and arrested Prince Anthony Uwa, 31, and William Ugiagdor, 38, who have both confessed to the crime,” he said.
