A notorious kidnapper nicknamed Pilot has escaped from police custody in Ebonyi state.
Ogonna Alioka aka Pilot is one of the suspects who allegedly kidnapped, killed and buried an elderly woman, Mrs Catherine Okorie in Ishiagu, Ivo LGA of Ebonyi state. Catherine hailed from Ishiagu and was kidnapped in her residence on January 18, 2017.
Pilot was paraded alongside other suspected criminals in August 8, 2017. According to reports, he escaped on the night of 22nd October 2017.
A son of the deceased, Mr Ikechukwu Okorie, in his residence in Abakaliki said that although he was yet to be briefed officially by the police, the intelligence information available to him was that the suspect was no longer in the police cell.
“God delivered him into our hand. My brother do you know what we are hearing? That Mr Ogonna Alioka that we know how much we spent for him to be caught since 31st July 2017 has disappeared from the cell they kept him. They said this man disappeared from the police cell last Sunday being 22nd October 2017.
“Where do they tell that kind of nonsense? And this is a man that has given a foundation-shaking confessional statement.
"Our lawyers mounted pressure on the police to arraign this man in court since 31st July. This is October but they are yet to do that.
“They kept dig-dallying only for us to hear from the back door that he is no longer there. However they did it; whatever caused them to release the person that went, kidnapped and shot our mother dead and they would not arraign the person. However the person disappeared, I am sure that Ebonyi State Police Command is joking. It’s a joke of the century” he thundered.
He alleged that a prominent politician from Ishiagu community [names withheld] who he alleged had a hand in the fate of his mother has been making efforts to close up the matter.
