Police arrest man for drugging, trafficking teenage girls to Libya

665

The Osun State Police command has confirmed the arrest of one Adebisi Muideen, for allegedly drugging four teenage girls and planning to traffic them to Libya.

Muideen had invited the teenage girls for a birthday party, served them food, and laced their drinks with sleeping pills, a statement issued by the command’s spokesman, DSP Yemisi Opalola, said.

According to Opalola, the suspect had successfully moved the four girls from Ile-Ife in Osun State to Kano State to be trafficked to Tripoli, Libya, before he was apprehended.

He added that three of the victims miraculously escaped and called their parents who informed the police.

The spokesman further stated that the suspect claimed the girls “willingly accepted to go to Libya and work”, saying “his brother who resides in Tripoli instructed him to get girls for him and send them to a man in Kano who will take them to Libya from Kano.”

“After taking the food and drinks, the girls slept off and later woke up in Kano State en route to Tripoli, the capital of Libya.

“However, three of the girls escaped miraculously in Kano and called their parents who reported the matter to police.

“The three of the girls have been reunited with their families but the whereabouts of the fourth girl is still not known presently.

“When we got to the man’s house in Kano, we met so many girls that were being processed for the journey to Libya,” the statement said.
