Two weeks after the arrest of a notorious kidnap kingpin,
Chukwudimeme Onwuamadike, aka Evans, the police have yet to determine when the
suspect will be arraigned in court.
This is just as the Lagos State Police Command said it was
not aware of any other media interview with Evans since he was paraded on June
11.
The 36-year-old was apprehended on Saturday, June 10, 2017.
He also revealed his involvement in drug trafficking and
robberies.
Six of his gang members were also paraded.
A Lance Corporal, Victor Chukwunonso, attached to the
Nigeria Army Band Corps, Abatti Barracks, Surulere, Lagos State, had also been
arrested by the police for allegedly belonging to the kidnappers’ gang.
However, the police said they were still taking an inventory
of Evan’s criminal activities.
The spokesperson for the Lagos State Police Command, ASP
Olarinde Famous-Cole, on Monday, stated that he would be arraigned after
investigations.
He directed our correspondent to the Force Public Relations
Officer, CSP Moshood Jimoh, for details on the arraignment date.
He said, “After investigations, the Inspector-General of
Police will give directive onwhat to do.
“There are some other pieces of information about the
suspect that must be known to us about things that happened years ago. We have
to update all of them in our record. You can call the FPRO for other necessary
information.”
Famous-Cole also said the command had not presented Evans to
the media for interview since the June 11 parade, adding that the police were
not aware of other purported interviews with him.
“Journalists interviewed him during the parade led by the
FPRO. Information being put out now probably came from the parade on that
day. I am not aware of any other
parade.”
The FPRO did not pick calls
and had yet to reply to a text message sent to him as of press time.
