When the bag was opened, fresh human parts and two plastic bottles filled with blood were recovered from the bag.“They also found five fingers, human heart, liver, kidney and intestines, all concealed inside a bowl filled with water.“The different parts were tied in separate polythene bags and were all put inside the bag.”Olaide claimed that his partner, who bolted after policemen stopped them, was the owner of the items.He further claimed that he didn’t even know the contents of the bag until he was arrested.Olaide told the police that he and the fleeing friend slept in a church the previous night.He confessed to be coming from a white garment church located in Egbe area of the state when they were accosted.
