One Olayemi Adeoye, has been arrested by the Ondo State Police Command for allegedly stealing and selling stolen cars.

Parading the suspect, at the police headquarters in Akure yesterday, Police spokesman Femi Joseph said Adeoye was caught when he attempted to steal a Toyota Corolla car registered as SS719 AAA, belonging to Mr. Olanipekun of Oba Estate, Akure.

Waheed Anifowose, a vulcaniser, who brings people to buy the stolen cars was also paraded along with Adeoye.

Adeoye said he was a welder, but derived joy in stealing cars, especially CVR cars with master keys.

He added that in the last two years, he had been involved in stealing 32 cars, adding: “The shocking aspect is that he always gets out of the case and finds his way back to the society to commit more crimes.”

SP Joseph said the suspect was arrested and released on June 15, before he was re- arrested, adding that the police will ensure the suspect is punished this time.

He said investigations are on to recover the vehicles he and his accomplices have stolen, adding that the master keys have been recovered.

“Three cars and two CRV sport utility vehicles have been recovered from the suspect,” Joseph said.
