The Police have revealed they are under pressure to release kidnap kingpin, Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike, alias Evans.
Evans was arrested two weeks ago at his mansion at Magodo Estate, Lagos.
The notorious kidnapper has been on the police wanted list for over seven years.
Acting
Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Galadanshi Dasuki, while addressing
newsmen on Saturday at the Command Headquarters in Ikeja, said they
will not release Evans, despite calls from different quarters to do so.
“Evans
has been a kidnapper for a long time and has been on the wanted list of
the Police in Anambra, Abuja, Enugu, Edo and Lagos states.
“He
also has a criminal gang, some of whom have been arrested in Enugu and
Lagos. But there are still more out there. Therefore, this needs a
painstaking investigation
“Besides, we need to understudy him as
well as debrief him. By so doing, we intend to use his tactics to get
others. He will eventually be charged to court after investigation is
concluded,” Dasuki said.
