A suspected internet fraudster (Yahoo boy) and his herbalist known as Ike aka Ogenesu, have been arrested after policemen attached to the Obiaruku Police Station recovered suspected human parts at the herbalist’s place in Obiaruku, Ukwuani Local Government Area, Delta State.

It was gathered that the fraudster was driving in Obiaruku around 5.20pm on Friday, October 28, when his vehicle was flagged down by some police officers who were on a stop-and-search duty.

He however didn’t stop but zoomed off with the vehicle.

The policemen, who became suspicious of his action, gave him a hot chase and caught up with him.

According to a resident, who asked not to be identified for security reasons, the policemen, while searching the vehicle, found a note specifying the need for human parts.

“The instruction on the note was that the man should provide a human head, hand and leg. After recovering the note, the policemen asked what he wanted to use the specified items for and out of fear, he said it was for something.

“So, the policemen embarked on full investigation by visiting the Obiaruku Police Station to obtain a warrant to search his three-bedroom flat and while searching his house, they obtained another written note requesting the same items in the first written note that was found in his car”.

The source said after the policemen found the notes, they detained the suspect and during interrogation, he said Ike requested the human parts.

The following day, the suspect led policemen to the herbalist’s place, and while searching the premises, a decomposing corpse was found beside a fish pond.

“The herbalist used nylon to cover the corpse and since the corpse was close to the fish pond, nobody perceived the smell because of the odour around the fish pond.

“The policemen took the Yahoo boy and the herbalist to the station and they were transferred to the state command for further investigation”.

The herbalist however claimed the corpse was that of his child that was buried.
