Abutu said, "Upon the receipt of the information, a team of the RRS Operatives in synergy with the Police Personnel attached to Iworoko Divisional Police Headquarters swung into action and stormed the bush where the suspected cultists shot sporadically on sighting the Police.
In the process however, five(5) suspects were arrested and all claimed to be students of Ekiti State University while other suspects took to their heels and escaped.
The names of the suspects arrested are: Adeyeye Adeyemi 'm'(29yrs), Adeyemi Tobi 'm'(25yrs), Moyosore Onajobi 'm'(22yrs), Dickson Godwin 'm'(23yrs) and Olowosaye Martins 'm'(21yrs).

Meanwhile, "the Ekiti State Commissioner of Police has ordered a thorough investigation of the arrested suspects and has equally tasked the Operatives to ensure the apprehension of the fleeing suspects.
The Ekiti State Police Boss, while assuring the good people of Ekiti State that the Command's fight against cultism and other criminal activities in the State will continue until they are brought to zero, enjoins everyone to cooperate and support the Police in the fight against crimes by providing timely and useful information that could help in flushing out the criminal elements in our Society.
