How Police Nab Two Suspects Over Kidnap of Egyptian.

One of the suspects came out and told them that it was a family affair. He said the noise was coming from his younger brother who went to Europe and came back with nothing after the family had expended over two million naira on him.

The informant revealed that he personally insisted on seeing the brother but the suspect pleaded for time. He later brought someone to them and claimed he was his brother who shouting.

Anthony said he alerted the police when he was not satisfied with the explanation given.

When the police arrived the scene, they discovered the Egyptian who was already unconscious and in a pool of blood probably from injury he sustained on his head for daring to shout for help.

He was however resuscitated and taken to hospital for more treatment.

The image maker of Delta state Police Command, ASP Chuks Orisewezie confirmed the rescue of the Egyptian when contacted.

Meanwhile, the informant, Anthony Ibe has cried out to well meaning nigerians to come to his rescue to relocate from the area.

He said his life is in danger as a result of the role he played in the rescue of the Egyptian.
