vehicle on their way to the eastern part of the country
The state Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Mrs.
Celestina Kalu, disclosed that the arrest was stirred
following a tip through a petition forwarded to the

native doctors with human parts, but we are interrogating
them with the exhibit we recovered from them in the vehicle.
