Oyo Police Denies Leak of Abduction Probe Details

The Oyo State Police Command has dismissed reports claiming leaked operational details of the Ahoro-Esiele abduction investigation. In a statement on June 5, the Police PRO said the publication did not come from any authorised security agency and contained unverified claims about suspects, interception records and financial transactions. Authorities stress that all investigation leads and intelligence are classified to protect the operation and secure arrests. They warn bloggers and online publishers against spreading unconfirmed information, which could mislead residents, cause panic and undermine active security work. The police command cautioned that anyone deliberately circulating false information or interfering with the probe will face legal action. Residents are urged to rely only on official channels for updates on this case and other security matters in the state.
