The Enugu State Police Command has intercepted a viral video showing two ladies alleged to have been rescued from a hotel room in Enugu, where they were tied up in an attempt to their organs by two young men.



The Command, therefore, wishes to state that, contrary to the misleading narrative on the incident, preliminary investigation revealed a case of demanding money with menaces and fraud, and not murder or human organs or parts harvesting as being peddled.

It was learnt that young ladies, operating as commercial sex workers, escaped ritual murder at a popular hotel in Enugu, the Enugu State capital, after they had gone for a hookup with some men.

In a viral video watched by our correspondent that the ladies were reported to have gone into the hotel on Thursday night, July 4, 2024 with two men also suspected to be organ harvesters.

It was further learnt that the ladies had their mouths tied and were bound legs and hands by the men, who allegedly kept them inside the hotel room toilet but were however said to have been rescued around 3pm on Friday, by the hotel staff, who also found bowels, two sharp knives, a cutlass and a cooler with which to package the parts they wanted in the hotel room.

The Police Spokesman of the state command, Daniel Ndukwe in a statement described the narrative as misleading saying that the ladies, operating as commercial sex workers, made out with the young men on July 3, 2024, in a hotel (names withheld) along Agbani Road, Enugu. They had another appointment the following day and met the suspects in the hotel where the incident occurred.

He said ” At the hotel, the suspects beat and tied up the girls in the hotel’s room toilet after menacingly demanding and obtaining their phones and account details, including their Personal Identification Numbers (PINs). They surreptitiously found their way out of the hotel before the victims were rescued, as seen in the video. They further fraudulently withdrew a cumulative sum of one hundred and twenty thousand (#120,000.00) from the victims’ accounts.

“Meanwhile, a bag containing two (2) kitchen knives and sportswear the suspects left behind has been recovered, while an intelligence-guided investigation to fish out and bring the fleeing suspects to book is ongoing.

The command advised managers of hotels to exercise the highest standards of security alertness and ensure that lodgers are properly screened, and their verifiable details obtained before being accommodated.

He said “Moreover, young ladies have been cautioned against going out with unknown persons, particularly males, under any guise to avoid falling prey to similar criminals and their activities.
