WOW! How A 17-Year-Old Boy Was Arrested For Allegedly Impregnating 10 Ladies (Photo)
A 17-year-old kid has been detained by the Rivers State Police Command on suspicion of impregnating ten women.
Noble Uzuchi, the culprit, and Chigozie Ogbonna, 29, his accomplice, were both apprehended.
The two suspects and two additional women, Favour Bright and Peace Alikoi, were reportedly running a baby factory, according to the authorities.
The arrests were made as a result of a tip-off, according to Grace Iringe-Koko, Rivers Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO).
In a statement, Iringe-Koko stated that the four suspects operated in the Obio/Akpor and Ikwerre local government areas of the state before their arrest.
She added that the 10 pregnant ladies had been rescued by the force operatives after the raid on and arrest of the suspects.
“On Saturday, January 7, 2023, around 4.45 pm, while acting on credible intelligence available to the Rivers State Police Command, C4I Intelligence Unit operatives raided two houses at Igwuruta and Omagwa communities respectively, where victims of child trafficking were being kept.
“The victims rescued in the operation are 10, most of them pregnant,” she said.
She claimed that investigations found that when a victim delivered her baby, the syndicate leader kept the child and paid N500,000 while some of the babies previously delivered in the houses had been sold.
“All the victims confessed that they were lured into the illicit sales of children because of the need to meet some financial challenges.
A white Honda Pilot SUV was recovered from the syndicate’s leader,” she added.
