A 40-year-old herbalist, Michael Itomu, and three of his cohorts have been arrested for the alleged possession of fresh human hands in Idiroko, Ogun State.

According to Guardian, his cohorts were identified as Mathew Idosu, John Feyisetan and Samuel Adegbola.

Preliminary investigation revealed that it was Mathew Idosu who contacted his family friend in Abeokuta to supply the hands. The supplier of the hand along with two of his accomplices is now at large.

After the supplier allegedly delivered the hand, the recipient was not able to meet up with his own end of the bargain.

Consequently, an argument ensued between them. Thereafter, the supplier of the hand took Samuel Adegbola and John Feyisetan to a bush and beat them thoroughly.

The scuffle contributed to their secret leaking, leading to their eventual arrest.

Meanwhile, the fresh human hands have now been taken to Idiroko general hospital for examination.
