Three men arrested for being in possession of suspected Human parts; suspect confesses to buying human heart for N50,000

This news report describes a disturbing incident involving the apprehension of a man named Moshood Najimdeen in Oke-Ola area of Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State, Nigeria. According to the report, the Zone 2 Police Command, responsible for Lagos and Ogun states, arrested Najimdeen at his residence. The police reportedly discovered two suspected human hearts during a search at his residence.

The spokesperson of the Zone 2 Police Command, SP Ayuba Tunni Umma, confirmed the arrest and stated that during the interrogation, Najimdeen implicated another individual, Adebanjo Wasiu, whom he claimed to have paid Fifty Thousand Naira (₦50,000.00) to assist in obtaining the two human hearts. Adebanjo Wasiu, in turn, pointed to another person, Segun Asunni, as the source of the hearts.

The authorities have initiated an investigation into the alleged offense, and the two suspected human hearts have been sent to Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH) for thorough examination and confirmation. The spokesperson mentioned that further findings would be communicated as the investigation progresses.

This incident raises serious concerns and highlights the need for a thorough investigation to determine the facts surrounding the case. The involvement of multiple individuals suggests a potentially organized and illicit activity related to human organs, which is a grave criminal offense. Authorities will likely work to uncover the full extent of the situation and bring those responsible to justice.
