How A Security Guard Planned The Abduction Of A Bank Manager

  • The security guard was said to have contacted somebody who reportedly enlisted the help of the second suspect.

 

The Police Command in Edo has apprehended a security guard over an alleged plan to abduct the Manager of Zenith Bank branch in Ekpoma, Esan West Local Government Area of the state.

SP Bello Kontongs, the command’s Spokesman, who confirmed the arrest, said that the security man was arrested alongside another suspect.

EkoHotBlog reports that the security guard was said to have accused the bank manager, Mr Ralphael Ibodeme, of organising several bank robberies in the area.

However, it was gathered that Ibodeme had taken some administrative actions against the suspect over alleged acts of insubordination, which might have provoked him into plotting the bank manager’s abduction.

The security guard was said to have contacted somebody who reportedly enlisted the help of the second suspect.

However, the recruiter of the second suspect, who had just been released from prison after serving out his term for kidnapping, reportedly developed cold feet  and reported the conspiracy to the police.

The arrest of the security guard and the second suspect was made possible, as the latter’s recruiter was asked by the police to play along in the planned abduction of the bank manager.

When quizzed by the police on his role in the plot, the security guard accused the bank manager of robbery, after which he said after further interrogation that he had had a running battle with Ibodeme.

The police spokesman, however, said that the report of the anti-kidnapping squad of the command showed that the security guard lied against the bank manager to avoid being prosecuted.
