He was said to be one of the three suspected ritualists arrested by police in the state in connection with the disappearance of a 70-year-old Kehinde Rabiu, who was declared missing at Idode-Imomo in the area.
findings revealed that Owotomo,65, was arrested at his residence in Oke Agbo, Ijebu-Igbo in Ijebu North Local Government Area by policemen from Atan Police Division following a tip- off.
A police source from Atan Police Station, who pleaded anonymity, told Vanguard that the man was picked up by policemen after his house was searched where a shrine was uncovered with fresh human parts.
It would be recalled that a kidnappers' den was uncovered in the same area recently after the mysterious disappearance of the aged man which led to the arrest of three suspects.
According to the police source, "we went to Ijebu-Igbo with the support of the CDA member after we got a tip-off from the people. When we got to the man's house, it was an eyesore. We discovered a calabash in one of his rooms where a fresh human tongue, human palm and a woman's private parts were kept in a shrine drenched with blood assumed to be human blood.
When contacted, the police spokesman in Ogun State, Muyiwa Adejobi, who confirmed that some people had been arrested, said he was yet to be briefed on the latest happening.
