Organ Harvesting Case In Enugu- Police Calrifies-The Enugu State Police Command has launched an extensive manhunt for suspects involved in a widely circulated viral video that allegedly shows an attempt to harvest the organs of two women in a hotel. DSP Daniel Ndukwe, the police spokesperson, provided clarity on the situation after a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident.
According to Ndukwe, the initial narrative suggested that two women were rescued from a hotel room in Enugu where they were supposedly tied up by two men attempting to harvest their organs. However, the investigation revealed that this was a case of extortion and fraud, not organ harvesting or attempted murder as initially believed.
Ndukwe explained that the two women, identified as commercial sex workers, encountered the suspects on Wednesday, July 3, 2024, at a hotel along Agbani Road, Enugu. The women met the same men again the following day, Thursday, July 4, at the same hotel, where the situation took a dark turn. The suspects menacingly demanded the women’s phones and account details, including their Personal Identification Numbers (PINs), before beating and tying them up in the hotel room’s toilet.
The suspects managed to leave the hotel before the victims were rescued, as seen in the viral video. They also fraudulently withdrew a cumulative sum of ₦120,000 from the victims’ bank accounts. A bag containing two kitchen knives and sportswear left behind by the suspects was recovered, and the police have initiated an intelligence-guided investigation to apprehend the fleeing suspects and bring them to justice.
