The Anambra State Police Command, in conjunction with members of the state vigilante group, has arrested a suspected cult member, identified as Izunna Ifeobu.
Ifeobu, a 21-year-old native of Ugamuma village, Obosi, in the state, was arrested with a cut-to-size single-barrel gun concealed in a bag.
He was said to have been intercepted by the security men in the state at Eke Obosi, by Obosi/Nkpor road, on his way to attend an initiation event scheduled by his cult group.
He confessed to being a member of Baggers confraternity.
The state police spokesman, DSP Tochukwu Ikenga, who confirmed this, Monday, added that other members of the gang, on hearing of the arrest, fled the venue of the initiation meeting.
