“He said that their leader, Ezemuo, now at large, was doing most of the killings, along with the late Double Lion who was recently killed at Ihiala.”

“Some of the people we killed was because they were accused of monitoring us and acting as informants. The two policemen I killed were at Ozubulu,” the captured gunman further disclosed.
