SHOCKING: The End of Terror! Notorious Kidnapping and Ritual Gang Led By Ifeoluwa Julius Busted in Ondo State

The chilling details and the fetish items recovered that prove their nefarious plans.

A Major Breakthrough in Ondo Security

The residents of Ogbese town in Ondo State can breathe a collective sigh of relief as the state Police Command announced a massive operational success this week. A dangerous four-man syndicate, long suspected of perpetrating a terrifying combination of kidnapping, armed robbery, and ritual-related activities in the area, has finally been dismantled and arrested.

The notorious group, spearheaded by the principal suspect, Ifeoluwa Julius, had been high on the Command’s watch list due to mounting intelligence linking them to violent crimes that have plagued the community. This arrest marks a significant step toward restoring peace and stability in the Ogbese axis.Inside the Intelligence-Driven Operation

The successful apprehension was the result of a coordinated, intelligence-led raid executed by the operatives of the Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) unit. Acting on a credible and timely tip-off, the SWAT team strategically moved on the outskirts of Ogbese town, ensuring the operation was precise and effective.

The swift action demonstrated the Police Command’s resolve to proactively confront and neutralize emerging threats across the state. The effectiveness of the new operational strategies championed by the Inspector-General of Police is clearly paying off, turning up the heat on criminals.

The Chilling Confession and Disturbing EvidencePerhaps the most shocking aspect of the bust came during the interrogation of the suspects. The ringleader, Ifeoluwa Julius, reportedly made a chilling admission, openly confessing to his involvement in ritualismand confirming the gang’s roles in multiple kidnapping incidents within the Ogbese region.

In the course of the operation, police recovered a disturbing cache of items that corroborated the gang’s confession and dark intentions:

• Fetish Items: Various objects used in dark rituals.

• Blood-Stained Cloth: A red and white piece of cloth, confirming the ritualistic nature of their operations.

• Expended Cartridge: Evidence of their armed robbery activities.

Further investigations revealed that the gang had recently returned from a trip where they had acquired additional ‘criminal charms,’ or fortifications, intended to boost their capacity for future, more dangerous undertakings.

Ondo State Is Not A Safe Haven for Criminals

DSP Olushola Ayanlade, the command spokesman, confirmed the development, reiterating the zero-tolerance stance of the Ondo State Police. The Commissioner of Police has strongly emphasized that the state will never serve as a sanctuary for criminal elements.

The message is clear: whether involved in high-profile Ondo kidnapping plots, armed robbery, or ritual killings, all suspects—regardless of their tactics or attempts at concealment—will be pursued, apprehended, and made to face the full weight of the law.

The arrested suspects will be formally charged to court once the police conclude their investigations, ensuring justice is served for the victims and the community.
