“Exhibits recovered from them include one double-barrel cut to size gun, some rolls of electric cable wire and one cutlass.”


He has ordered that the suspects and exhibit be transferred to SCID for further investigation.

“Meanwhile, a manhunt for other cult members terrorizing the community is ongoing.”
