THE Ondo State Police Command has started investigations into the disappearance of a four-year-old boy, Sunday Daniel, who was reportedly kidnapped from his mother’s shop in Akure on Monday.
Police spokesman Wole Ogodo said Daniel was declared missing by her mother after “she had made frantic efforts to find him, but to no avail”.
The boy was reported missing from her mother’s shop, where she sells alcoholic drinks in a motor park.
Ogodo said officers of the Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (CIID) were already investigating the matter.
He added that the mother of the missing boy, Mrs. Maria Sunday, reported the case at the Ifesowapo Police Post after all efforts to find her son failed.
The police spokesman said Mrs. Sunday, in her statement, alleged that one of her male customers was suspected to be responsible for the incident.
Ogodo assured that the police would employ all necessary strategies to rescue the boy.
He advised parents to always look after their children to avoid similar situation.
