A 27-year-old armed robber and serial rapist, Adeniyi Ajayi has reportedly escaped from the custody of the Lagos State Police Command.
KaniDaily had reported how the notorious criminal was arrested six months ago by operatives of the now disbanded Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), in a hotel at Ijora 7-up area of the state.
While being paraded, rather than showing remorse for his action, ex-convict who don’t want to be sent back to prison, begged the Police to kill him after confessing that he raped women and maids in the presence of their husbands and bosses during operation.
Months after he was sent to prison, SaharaReporters gathered that Ajayi has escaped from detention through the help of some senior police officers.
A source told the media outlet that Ajayi had already robbed two homes and raped a lady after he escaped from police custody.
“They said he uses juju. I don’t know what to believe, but the guy is quite artful and very prolific. He knows how to escape and evade arrest. We were on his trail for a while until, with the help of SARS, he was recently arrested.
“However, during the #EndSARS campaign, a neighbourhood security person informed me that the guy had been released. I didn’t believe it. I made calls to some SARS officers at the Lagos State Command of Nigeria.
“They told me it’s a lie, but my security source was adamant. Just last week we got information that he robbed two homes recently and raped someone. When I confronted the SARS officers, they owned up that the guy is no longer in detention as he had escaped in the course of a purported jailbreak.
“This explanation sounded fishy because there was no report of a jailbreak anywhere in Lagos during the #EndSARS protests. So how come? Our lives are now in danger,” the source said.
KanyiDail had also reported how a 27-year-old prophet identified as Michael Mbonu was arrested for allegedly killing one Princewill Ezeji who visited him to bless his new car in Imo State.
