A middle-aged man was nabbed at Ikpoba Hill, Benin, Edo State on Friday, for allegedly stealing wife’s pants for ritual purpose.
It was gathered that the suspect had already taken one to his pastor and was on the verge of stealing more when he was nabbed.
The said pastor and his assistance were also nabbed and tortured by an angry mob before they were eventually handed over to security operatives.
The Nigerian police however had earlier said that they cannot investigate the recent claim of stealing of ladies’ pants for money ritual because it is not empirically verifiable.
