Police in Ebonyi State rescue a Methodist cleric, Rev. Ede Sunday, who was abducted in Ohaukwu Local Government Area. The Ebonyi State Police Command says officers locate and free the cleric during operations conducted in the area.
In separate actions, the police also arrest a suspected cultist. The command reports recovering a locally made Beretta pistol loaded with one round of 9mm ammunition, alongside a stolen mobile phone. The two outlets report the recovery and arrests as part of the broader police response to the abduction, though details of timing and additional circumstances are not fully specified in the brief accounts.
Overall, both sources agree on the main outcome: the cleric is rescued and suspected criminal suspects are arrested, with firearms and items linked to the incident recovered. Differences are limited to emphasis, with one outlet also explicitly pairing the rescue with the cultist arrest and the other focusing on the recovered items in separate operations.
