Fake Modelling Agents Who Lure Young Ladies To Hotels Arrested

Two suspected criminals might end up spending Christmas and the new year behind bars after they were arrested operatives of Rapid Response Squad, RRS for posing on social media as models recruiting agents, luring young models to hotels and bars and dispossessing them of money and personal belonging

The suspects, Stanley Odachi, 27 and Chuks Oragwu, 31 were arrested recently in the course of luring another victim to a hotel in Igando, Alimosho, Lagos.

No less than five victims had reported the suspects to the operatives of the RRS, the ladies claimed that the suspects absconded with their mobile phones and money under the pretext of registering them for modelling jobs.

About four other young models refused to press charges. Two other victims stated that they were having an examination in school and could not make a formal complaint. All the suspects, who are still in and out of school stated that they encountered the suspects on Instagram through the advertisements on their handles requesting young models to enlist with their agency for a modelling contract.

The victims added that they were subsequently asked to report at hotels, where they were made to surrender their mobile phones, which the suspects escaped with.
