“Later, they would start demanding money from their victims, with the threat to expose their n*dity online should they fail to cooperate.
“Ladies who thought it was a joke ended up having their n*de photos posted online by the suspects.”
“I can confirm their arrest, but they are no more with us; they have been handed over to other security agency,” the Army spokesman stated.Adelegan, however, refused to disclosed the identity of the suspects.
In the same vein, the Head of Public Relations Unit of the National Youths Service Corps in Ondo State, Mrs. Christy Olatoye, also confirmed the arrest.
