Careless Talk By Victim’s Husband At A Bar Gave Him Out- Robbery Suspect
Two robbery suspects arrested by the operatives of the Force Intelligence Response Team, IRT, have narrated how they got information about money in a victim’s house.
According to them, the victim, Pa Olutokunbo, unknowingly leaked such sensitive information, “because he talked carelessly”.
“He was in a bar and was talking about the money he had in his house which my overheard. We then went and consulted a native doctor to prepare charms for us to make us succeed in the operation. “We asked Koba, to check if the man had the money in his house and he said yes, we then asked him to give us charms that would enable us to appear inside the man’s house.
“He prepared it and gave us to wear it on our necks, but when got there the charm failed to work and when we called him on the phone, told as to be patient that someone would come out of the house. We saw someone coming out of the house and when he was going back, we followed him into the house.
“We met four persons in the house but there was this old woman we met who started shouting and I took her into the room but she died while I was pulling her.
“My brother Akeem asked the man for the money in his house and the man gave us N15,000. We called Koba again and told him that the money was not in the house, but Koba asked us to keep searching because he was very sure that there was money in that house as his oracle never deceived him.
“When my brother held the man and tried to kill him, the man begged and went into his room and brought out a bag containing money and gave it to us.
“We saw charms on the money and we called Koba and informed him about the money and the charm and he asked us not to bring it to him immediately. We took the bag to him and he gave me N60,000 and gave my brother N50,000.
“Before then, Koba had told my brother and I that he could prepare rituals for us that would make us rich and he had asked us to get the sum of N100,000 for it, but since we were so poor and we couldn’t raise the money, we decided to give him the N100,000 out of the money he gave us.
“He prepared a soap for us which he asked us to bath with. But after all we did, we did not get anything.
“We then realised that Koba fooled us. My brother and I were looking for a way of fighting him to get back our money before the police came and arrested us”.
Unfortunately, during the operation, the robbers killed the victim’s 72-year-old wife, Christiana Olutokunbo, and robbed him of the sum of N550,000 and three mobile phones.
