A notorious cult member and armed robber disguising as a cop to carry out nefarious activities has been arrested by the Rivers State Police Command.
The State Commissioner of Police, Olatunji Disu, disclosed this while parading the fake inspector identified as Fred Monday, and other suspects during a press briefing at the command headquarters in Port Harcourt on Thursday, September 12, 2024.
The CP said the suspect was apprehended when operatives busted a cult initiation involving students of the Ken Saro Wiwa Polytechnic.
According to the CP, the fake policeman, who confessed to being a member of the Iceland cult group, provided cover for the students during the initiation process.
Exhibits recovered from the suspect include one AK-47 rifle, 10 magazines and 29 rounds of live ammunition.
”On August 9, 2024, at about 11.45 pm, operatives of the Anti-Kidnapping Unit of the Rivers State Police Command responded to an intelligence report of a criminal operation in Luegbo Community in Khana Local Government Area,” the CP stated.
“On arriving at the scene, the Police met with an ongoing gruesome Cult initiation process. Five suspects, later found to be students of the Ken Saro Wiwa Polytechnic, were arrested.
“The students, Mduni Clement, Prosper Wonyingipreye, Kunle Joseph, Eken Evans and Isaiah Elisha confessed to being members of the Vikings confraternity. They have been charged in court and are presently in a correctional centre.
”While carrying out the arrest of the five cultists, the Police encountered a man with them, fully dressed in Police camouflage and donning the rank of an Inspector of Police.
“He was armed with an AK-47 rifle, ten magazines and twenty-nine rounds of live ammunition. He was taken into custody and after interrogations, his identity was revealed as Fred Monday, a 31-year-old from Wiyakara Community in Khana Local Government Area of Rivers State and resident at F-man Close, Eneka Link Road, Port Harcourt.
“He confessed to being an impostor who bought the rifle in 2021 for NGN 850,000 from an accomplice, Goodluck aka Boy-J. He also bought ten magazines, thirty-one rounds of ammunition and two hand grenades from the same accomplice.
“He disclosed to the Police how he and other gang members would disguise as Policemen to escort criminals to operate in different states, including Akwa-Ibom, Edo, Delta and Rivers State.
“Fred Monday is a confessed member of the Iceland cult group and has been carrying out numerous crimes using the cover of being a Policeman to terrorise his victims.
“He is also an armed robber who operated as a Keke (tricycle) rider during the day, scanning the area for possible victims to attack under the cover of night.
“The investigation is still on as the Police is getting closer to rounding up other members of his gang.”
