Two notorious suspected kidnappers have confessed that when they abduct victims, they kill them before selling their body parts to ritualists in order to make huge sums of money.

P.M.EXPRESS reports that the youths of Ikot Ekpene Local Government area, Akwa Ibom State, arrested two notorious kidnappers, who had been terrorizing the area by kidnapping people, killing and selling their body parts.

It was gathered that Ikot Ekpene Local Government area has been considered very hot as citizens of that area are always sore afraid to go out any time from 7pm in the evening because of the high rate of killings and kidnapping.

The two suspects, namely,  Innocent Peter and Pius Harrison, were arrested by the youths of the community, who were on security monitoring at around 1am in the early hours of the morning.
The suspects were apprehended while trying to kidnap a woman and her kids along Factory Road in Ikot Ekpene, unknown to them that members of the vigilante group were around the area and held them in the process.

During interrogation, they both confessed and gave details of how they kidnapped people, kill them before cutting out their body parts to sell to ritualists outside the state.
They also confessed that, though they sell human parts to their clients outside the state for certain amount of money, but they have not cared to ask what the human parts were used for. They said they believed that they were for ritual purposes.

After their confession, the angry youths attempted to burn them to death but the village head intervened and directed that they should be handed over to the Police for them to face justice.

Thus, the youths handed them over to the Police, who have since commenced investigation over their confession in order to apprehend other accomplices.
