The interrogation of the two suspects led the police to an even more disturbing revelation.

Upon further investigation, officers were able to trace the source of the human tongues to Oyingbo Market, a popular trading hub in Lagos.

The police discovered that the human parts had been purchased from a third suspect, who was later arrested.

The third suspect, who allegedly sold the human tongues to the men, is now also in custody.

SP Hundeyin confirmed that the third suspect had been apprehended after being linked to the sale of the human parts at Oyingbo Market.

The revelation that human body parts were being sold openly in such a well-known market has sent shockwaves through the community.

A Marketplace for Human Parts?

The discovery of human body parts being sold at Oyingbo Market has raised serious questions about how such an illegal trade could exist in such a public space.

Oyingbo Market is one of the busiest and most popular markets in Lagos, known for selling everything from food items to clothing and household goods.

However, the revelation that human parts were being traded there has put the market in a negative light.

It remains unclear how long this illegal trade has been going on or how many people have been involved.

The Lagos State Police Command has assured the public that a thorough investigation is underway to uncover the full extent of the criminal network behind this disturbing trade.

SP Hundeyin stated that the investigation is being handled with utmost seriousness, and more arrests could follow as the police continue to dig deeper into the case.

Arrests and Potential Prosecution

As the investigation continues, the suspects remain in police custody and are being interrogated at the Lagos State Police Command headquarters.

SP Hundeyin has indicated that if the suspects are found culpable, they will be charged and arraigned in court.

The police spokesperson reassured the public that justice would be served in this case, and those responsible for the illegal trade in human body parts would face the full weight of the law.

The Lagos State Police Command has also urged anyone with information about the illegal sale of human parts to come forward and assist the police in their investigation.
