Three robbers set ablaze for stealing musical equipment in Delta
Angry mob reportedly set three suspected robbers ablaze in Ughelli, Ughelli North Local Government Area of Delta State over alleged theft of musical equipment belonging to a local Disc Jockey (DJ).
The incident occurred on Friday at Ofuoma community, near Afiesere, Ughelli, when the suspected robbers were caught trying to rob a boutique.
According to PUNCH, eyewitnesses said two suspected robbers were earlier nabbed and lynched in the locality on Wednesday morning before the Friday incident, which saw the suspects set ablaze.
The suspected robbers were said to have stolen DJ equipment worth millions of naira, prompting a community manhunt against them.
It was gathered that an indigene of the community said to be the gang leader confessed that his mother usually prepared charms for them before embarking on any mission.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Bright Edafe, however, said that he is “not aware yet, but will find out,” PUNCH reports
