Operatives of the Nigeria Police attached to the Lagos State Command have arrested two Pakistanis, who allegedly specialized in kidnapping people for ransom.

The unfortunate development was disclosed on Thursday

The PPRO, CSP Banjamin Hundeyin noted that the suspects were arrested after a distress call on Wednesday at the Ikeja Division of the command about the kidnap of a 48-year-old native of Pakistan in the Ikeja area of the state.

He said upon the receipt of the distress call, the anticrime patrol of the Division was swiftly deployed to the scene, resulting in the rescue of the 48-year-old victim and arrest of the two suspects.

The PPRO identified the suspects as Roman Gull and Aftab Ahmad, aged 19 and 28 respectively, stating that five other Pakistanis linked to the abduction escaped arrest.

Preliminary investigations had revealed that the two suspects and five others lured the victim to Lagos State from his base in Kano under the pretext that they had a job for him as a chef.

The police spokesman said: “The suspects booked the victim’s flight to Lagos and lodged him in a hotel on February 28, 2025.

“The next day, the seven suspects visited the victim, overpowered him, tied his hands and legs, and sent a message to his boss in Kano to pay the sum of N50 million ransom for his release or else he would be killed.

“The boss paid N1 million three days later to buy time and thereafter alerted the police.”
