How Police Arrested A Lawyer Among Gang Of Robbers

 Babatunde, a lawyer, was alleged to be a strong member of a robbery gang which specialised in robbing their victims of their posh cars and their belongings and selling the vehicles as Tokunbo.
The syndicate is divided into two gangs – While the robbery gang goes in search of exotic vehicles and would disposess owners of them, Babatunde allegedly gets a ready market for the vehicles and ensures that the robbery gang members are well taken care of after each operation by lodging them in hotels.
Their c
ups became full when they went to rob a retired Rear Admiral in his home in Ogbomoso, Oyo State, in May, 2013. The deadly gang was said to have dealt with members of the RearAdmiral’s household, after which they disposed him of his Toyota Highlander 2008 model, among other things.

Peter (23), Olabode Seun, Oladapo Olatide (37), Abdulmalik Abiodun Ojulari and Akeem Afolabi (30).
Others are Babatunde (37), Segun Adeyale (39), Isaac Nwose (42) and Williams Asuwata (47).
Indabawa said that vehicles recovered from them included Toyota Highlander with registration number LND 758 AG belonging to the Rear Admiral, Hoda Accord, LND 130 AT, Honda Accord, EPE 986 BD, Toyota Corolla, LN 690 EKY, unregistered Range Rover, unregistered Honda Crosstour, unregistered Toyota Highlander, unregistered Toyota Camry, Honda Accord with registration numberAP 835 ZAR, Honda Accord FDY 119 AA, Toyota Corolla LSD 120 BF, Toyota Camry AA 495 SHA and Toyota Camry FST 226 BH.
