The Osun State Police Command has arrested two men for alleged possession of human hair and flesh.

Public Relations Officer, Yemisi Opalola announced the arrest in a statement on Friday.

The spokesperson noted that the suspects were caught on Thursday in the Ijebu Jesa area of the state.

Opalola said at about 9.30a.m., the police received a distress call from Oke Ana Area on Iwaraja Erimo Road.

The call followed the complaints of an offensive odour by members of the community.

The police, led by the DPO of Ijebu Jesa Division, combed the bush and subsequently nabbed Ojo Gbadebo and Babatunde Hamsat.

“Upon the arrest, it was discovered that the bag one of the suspects was carrying contained human hair and flesh.”

The duo and the exhibits recovered are presently at the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID).
