Missing Scavenger Found, As Police Investigate Mysterious Disappearance


A scavenger, Zaradin Sani, who was allegedly kidnapped at no 31, Kayode Adebanji Street, off Unity Road, Ashamu Estate in Oke-Afa, last weekend, has been found, after operatives of the Lagos State Police Command tracked him from Ibadan to Kano.
This is just as the command has begun detailed investigation into the mysterious disappearance, with a view to unravel what really transpired.
It was earlier reported that the scavenger had in the company of colleague, gone into the said building to cart away a used fridge only to disappear, but had somehow managed to contact his colleague, who hitherto had been worried.
The victim was said to have told his colleague that he was being held inside a particular compound with a cross sign in
 front.
When news of his alleged disappearance filtered in, some scavengers numbering over 50, had stormed the said house  to protest.
Going berserk, the protesters had damaged several properties at V-Sleem gym, the ceiling of the main building, where the victim was allegedly abducted from, as well as the transformer stationed in front of the house.
Other scavengers, armed with cutlasses and knives, stormed the compound, threatening to pull it down and they were soon joined by other youths led by  the Seriki Hausa in Ejigbo.
However, a company of soldiers and policemen, who later searched the entire premises did not find the victim, who allegedly told them he was being held in ceiling and could see them.
They were said to have climbed the ceiling in search of the victim but could not find him. At a point, his phone line allegedly suddenly became unavailable.
  Despite interventions by security operatives, the youths started destroying television sets, glass doors, windows and other valuables in the compound.
  It was gathered that most of them brought out knives and cutlasses strapped on their bodies and forcefully opened the gate to the gym breaking everything on sight, forcing security agents to use force on them.
  However, the detectives attached to the command were said to have been tracking his movement through his phone and was once pinpointed at Ibadan.
Attempts to rescue him was aborted when the tracker indicated that he was again on the move, this time towards the Northern regio
