Two ladies, identified only as Mercy and Itoro by the police in Ogun State, have been detained for alleged human trafficking.
The suspects are suspected of trafficking Veronica, a woman, to Libya for prostitution.
According to allegations, the accused were part of a syndicate that abused women by promising them jobs and better lifestyles abroad.
However, they encountered their Waterloo when Mrs. Grace Anthony, the carer of their previous victim, reported them missing to the authorities.
According to a source, Mrs. Grace Anthony realized Veronica, a 29-year-old woman who lived with her, was gone on August 27.
“Grace went on to file a missing person report after all efforts to locate Veronica proved fruitless.”
Mercy and Itoro were found to have encouraged Veronica to be transported to Libya for prostitution on August 31.
The event was confirmed by Odutola Omolola, the public relations officer for the Ogun State Police.
“The Commissioner of Police has been briefed,” she stated. The two women must be charged right away because he deemed the behavior to be brutal and inhumane.
