The Ondo State Police Command has arrested a 35-year-old woman, Funmilayo Mogbojuri, for allegedly stealing a newborn baby at Sabo in the Okitipupa Local Government Area of the state.
The command’s spokesperson, SP Funmi Odunlami, who disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday, July 20, said the suspect was apprehended in Sagamu, Ogun state, five days after she absconded with the baby.
The suspect, Funmilayo, had earlier stolen a baby from the residence of another woman in Okitipupa in January 2021, but the baby died a few days later, according to the PPRO.
