The Kaduna State Police Command, on Thursday, paraded the suspected organisers of the maiden edition of a botched sex party.
This is as officials of the Kaduna State Urban Planning Development Agency (KASUPDA) demolished the building that was to host the party.
The state’s Commissioner of Police, CP Umar Muri, said some youths were arrested on December 27, 2020, after concluding plans to stage an elaborate party titled “Kaduna Sex Party” at a hotel in Sabon Tasha, Kaduna.
The suspects arrested are: Abraham Alber, the hotel owner; Umar Rufai and Suleiman Lemona.
He said the principal organiser of the event is at large but all the musical instruments brought for the event were recovered and the suspects will be charged to court after investigation.
Confession
One of the promoters of the botched party has confessed that he conceived the idea, but that it was a mere joke between him and his friends.
The suspect said the sex party was not organised to cause nuisance in Kaduna, as it was not supposed to go public, but a mere party among friends.
“Kaduna Sex Party started as a joke between me and my friends.
“It was not meant to go public, it was not meant to cause nuisance among the public of Kaduna State.
“It was just someone that felt that she was too brilliant that posted it on Twitter, he said.
Hotel demolished
The Public Relations Officer of KASUPDA, Nuhu Garba, said the hotel, billed to host the party, was demolished for contravening rights of occupancy.
“The law has vested the agency the power to demolish any building that contravenes the rights of occupancy. For instance, if a residential building is turned into something other than the purpose it was meant for, the law gives us power to demolish such property especially if it is against public interest,” he said.
“We were in Narayi, another suburb in the state to carry out similar assignment. We are currently demolishing another building that promotes illicit acts,” he added.
Bandits neutralised
The Kaduna Commissioner of Police also disclosed that the Command, in collaboration with the Force Headquarters, Abuja and the Nigerian Airforce (NAF) successfully carried out a joint operation on bandits’ camp in Kofa, Chukun LGA, where a large number of armed bandits were neutralised and dislodged and their camp destroyed.
He urged the neighbouring communities and villages to look out for the fleeing bandits and hastily report same to security agencies for a quick and appropriate action.
CP Muri also said the Command has apprehended over 82 suspects for various crimes and investigation into various allegations was ongoing.
He said some of the suspects have voluntarily confessed to their crimes and would be charged to court for prosecution accordingly, he added.
He stated that the Command also arrested a woman in Bauchi State, identified as Aisha Musa, who stole a 3-day old baby from the mother, one Mrs. Bilkisu Ishaq at her residence in Rigasa, Kaduna State.
