Iweh Kevwe and Emmanuel Ogibi were arrested by operatives of Inspector General of Police, Intelligence Response Team (IRT) while
trailing Gang leader Raymond Enahon, a private security man accused of participating in several kidnappings.
One of such cases was the kidnap of the former finance officer of Delta State University. His family was said to have paid a ransom of N5
million. The gang which is made up of different security guards from different areas have successfully kidnapped several persons within the
area they were supposed to guard.
According to the police, the kidnappers, on August 19, 2019, murdered Enahon for fleeing with N5 million ransom, which the gang had earlier
extorted from a victim’s family. After fleeing with the money, the kidnapper’s kingpin bought a Lexus 330 SUV for himself and lavished the
rest on numerous girlfriends.
The aggrieved members lured him out with another fake deal of N100m. When he got to their regular hideout, he was overpowered and tied
up. With the use of his ATM card, they were able to transfer all the money that we saw in his account.

They also took the new car that he bought and left him in the bush where he later died. The Lexus was sold for N1.4 million and the proceeds
shared between members.
It was further learnt that Enahon’s body was exhumed after Iweh and Tomson were arrested. The suspects led the IRT team to the shallow
grave to recover Enahon’s body.
