The Edo State Police Command has arrested two suspected cultists for allegedly torturing and humiliating a TikToker identified as ‘Queen Perri,’ following a viral video she made on social media.
Philip Ogbadu, Edo Commissioner of Police, revealed this in Benin City after a monthly security meeting.
He said two of the boys involved in the torture of the lady had been arrested and in police custody, adding that the command had intensified search for other culprits.
He also debunked the rumour making the rounds that the girl had died, stating that she’s alive and receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital.
He said, “It was alleged that the girl was killed, but she is alive. Due to the social stigma that may be attached, we will not reveal her whereabouts now. However, you will see the boys later.”
