The Deputy Commissioner of Police, Lagos State in charge of Administration, Dansuki Galadanchi, had denied media report that the command released one Emeka, who gave out his boss Evans and his gang members.
Galadanchi said that after Emeka’s boss, Chief Donatus Duru escaped from the kidnappers’ detention camp in Igando, the suspect was arrested and charged to Ebute-Meta Magistrate Court 2 and had been remanded in prison afterwards.
“It came as a surprise to the police, when a television station reported that the suspect escaped from the police custody.
“Emeka was never in our custody, we charged him to court immediately we arrested him, how come they now said we allowed him to escape from our custody, that is not true,” he said.
Emeka, an employee of Pharmacy owner, Duru, was said to have been the one who gave information to Evans on his boss from whom $1.2 million was collected.
