The Delta State Police Command has arrested three suspects; Cornelius Ememah, Nelson Aghogho and Ufuoma Tunde, for allegedly kidnapping, raping, and scamming victims they met via Facebook at Ufuoma in Ughelli North, Delta State.

This was disclosed by the command’s spokesperson, Bright Edafe, via his Twitter handle on Wednesday.
