The Police Public Relations Officer, Mrs. Funmilayo Odunlami-Omisanya, announced this in a press release on Monday.

According to her, the victims were discovered after police officers, led by the Area Commander of Owo, ACP Olufemi Awoyale, pursued the kidnappers into the bush where they had taken their captives.

Odunlami-Omisanya explained that the persistent search by the police forced the kidnappers to abandon their victims at Oyinbo Sanusi camp.

It would be recalled that the five individuals were kidnapped on the 18th of July, 2024.
