A regular clubber at Cosmila Hotel said:
“Some of these girls just dress up and come to the club and begin to pick money. While you’re spraying your friends, these girls will just be picking and pocketing them. Because men are already drunk in clubs, the girls get away with the money. I was not in the club last weekend, but I heard that the girl went for money that someone kept by his seat side, which he was getting prepared to go and spray. That was what happened.”
The spokesperson of the State Police Command, DSP Tochukwu Ikenga also confirmed the incident.
Ikenga disclosed that the birthday celebrant and his friends have been arrested while the case was under investigation.
He said:
“Contrary to what people are saying about the complicity of Cosmila Hotel, we were assisted by the management of the hotel, to arrest the suspects. Investigation is still ongoing.”
