Emeka, the man that allegedly gave his master out to
Evans' kidnap gang is believed to have been released from detention by the
police.
The victim, Donatus Duru, the pharmacist whose escape
from detention that led to the arrest of Chukwudumeje Onwuamadike aka Evans, has
said the Lagos State Police command has released the insider Emeka who gave him away.

Speaking on a Television program this morning, Duru said
that no police security has been provided for him since his escape from
detention.
When asked to confirm the report that the suspect had
been released, he said: “Yes, he has been released. He called one of my workers
yesterday; that was how I confirmed he had been released.”
He further said: “Since I escaped, I have been in hiding.
I have applied to the police for protection, but since then, nothing has been
done.”
Duru said that his escape was miraculous because the
kidnappers were becoming impatient and had concluded plans to take him to the
“canal” probably to kill him.
“I overheard them talking with Emeka one day and he said:
‘You don’t want to kill him? Kill him; in fact, kill him.'”
“So that night one of them from Ebonyi State – from his
dialect – brought me noodles and said I should eat so as to have strength to face
the boys at the canal.”
Duru said Emeka was his employee for five years. After
his arrest by the police, he made useful statements that led to the arrest of
Evans and his gang members.
