The youth of Ohaji in Imo state, on Tuesday, caught a man who was trying to gather the remains of accident victims on the Owerri Port Harcourt express road, after the Army Barracks in Obinze.

At the spot, on Thursday, April 18, a fatal auto crash involving a commercial bus full of passengers and a petrol tanker collided and claimed the lives of a driver and two passengers.

Also the next day, another accident was said to have occurred at the same spot, with a Toyota Sienna model going to the Imo State Polytechnic. The car somersaulted “severally”, and was seriously damaged, but the three occupants came
out of it alive.

Hence the youths were shocked to have found the man at the same spot with purported charms trying to gather the body parts from the unfortunate accidents.

An eye witness who pleaded anonymity said, “He was promptly surrounded by the youth of Ohaji and taken to the Eze who handed him over to the police.

”Before this, the man who could only converse in Hausa language mentioned that he had links in the community and named a man well known to the youth. The youth swung into action and went in search of the man and found him hiding in the ceiling of his house. They beat him up, while he claimed not to have known why he was being wanted, but when he had a little chance, he escaped into a nearby bush.

“The Hausa speaking juju man also mentioned that he had customers that visited him at night , dressed in suits carrying a briefcase. Thereby showing that he had people who patronize him at the expense of the lives of the innocent victims. They use the parts and bloodstains of the accident victims for their evil acts.”
