Vanguard gathered that Taise, a member of Icelander cult group and four members of his gang had in April 2020, invaded the home of the Magistrate, (names withheld) at Rumuagholu area of the State and abducted his daughter after dispossessing them of their cash and valuables.

However, while the kidnappers were still negotiating the ransom with the victim's family, she managed to escape from the kidnappers' hideout.

It was gathered that operatives of the IRT deployed to Rivers State, were contacted after the victim's escape and a manhunt was launched on the suspects.  Source disclosed that Taise couldn’t run far due to the lockdown in Rivers State and he was arrested in his home. He's now helping the operatives apprehend other members of his gang.

Narrating how it happened, the magistrate told the police that about four armed men accessed his home through the roof at the back at about 3 am. Three of them who were armed with guns ordered him and his entire family to lie face down. They then blindfolded them and tied their hands and legs.

Afterward, they took their time to raid the house of every valuable items, including electronic devices, mobile devices, money, clothes and shoes.

The Magistrate said the gang spent more than an hour searching through the house before packing all they got inside one of his cars. While leaving, they abducted his 25-year-old daughter. They also withdrew N100,000 from his abducted daughter’s account through her ATM.

On the second day, they contacted him and demanded N10million as ransom. They started negotiating and the kidnappers who refused to accept the amount offered switched off with a promise to call back the next day. Luckily, his daughter escaped and ran back home.

On how she managed to escape, the magistrate told the police that his daughter was menstruating at the time she was kidnapped. She cried, begging her abductors to help her get a pain reliever for the pain she was experiencing, so they offered to buy her a bottle of Chelsea hot drink.

The only one left to guard her, after waiting for another 30 minutes, also decided to check on the others.

On sensing that she was alone in the forest, she started screaming and when no one heard her, she started praying and shouting the name Jesus. She promised herself that after shouting the name Jesus about 100 times, she will try to escape.

After some minutes, she untied herself and started running back to the road, where a good samaritan gave her transport fare back home. She told her father that she was held at Rukpokwu forest in Obi Akpor Local government.

On his alleged role, the suspect Tasie, who is a native of Emohua local government of Rivers State, said his responsibility on the day the attack was just to watch the area while the other gang members entered the house.

He said: "I am an orphan, so I dropped out of school as soon as my parents died. It was because I needed to survive that made me to join a bad gang led by one Ihekazi Igwe. He started by initiating me into their cult group known as Icelander.

"On the day of the incident, I joined them at an agreed location at Omagwa. When I got there, Ihekazi, Ibuchi, Bright and Sampson Aaron were already on the ground with their guns. We drove to the house and I was only given a matchet to hold and watch out for vigilante boys. After about an hour, they drove out with another car and inside the car was a girl.  When we got to, the bush, they shared all the valuables that were gotten and I was given N10,000 and a wrapper. I was asked to go home because I live with my sister and if she does not see me in more 24 hours she could raise an alarm.

"When I called them the next day, they told me that they asked the family to pay N4million. I was waiting to be called to collect my share when Ihekazi called and said that she escaped. I wanted to use my share to start a business.I am sorry, it was poverty that led me to crime."
