The Satellite Police Division under the Lagos State command, has reportedly arrested two men, who specialise in stealing female pants for alleged ritual purpose.

Elkana gave their names as Friday Emmanuel (21) and Obiora Nwabueze (29). According to Elkana, one of the suspects (Emmanuel) claimed that Nwabueze assigned him to steal used female pants for a fee of N30,000.
