POLICE RAID ALLEGED BABY FACTORY IN MOWE, RESCUE PREGNANT WOMEN, CHILDREN

Operatives of the Ogun State Police Command have uncovered an alleged baby factory at Abaren Village in Mowe, Obafemi Owode Local Government Area of the state, rescuing two pregnant women and four children during the operation. The raid was carried out following information received by the police about suspicious activities reportedly taking place at the location.

The police operation forms part of efforts by the command to clamp down on criminal activities involving the exploitation of vulnerable women and children. Following the information received, operatives moved to the suspected facility, where they reportedly found the two pregnant women and four children and subsequently took them into protective custody.

The discovery has raised fresh concerns about the activities of suspected baby factories and the risks faced by women and children who may be exploited through illegal arrangements. Such facilities have previously been linked to the unlawful sale or trafficking of newborn babies and the exploitation of pregnant women, particularly vulnerable young women.

The Ogun State Police Command is expected to investigate the circumstances surrounding the operation and determine the individuals responsible for running the facility. The rescued persons are also expected to assist investigators as authorities work to establish how they came to be at the location and whether other people may be connected to the alleged operation.

The latest operation highlights the police command's continued efforts to tackle human trafficking and related criminal activities across Ogun State. Authorities are expected to provide further details as the investigation progresses, while the rescued women and children remain under the car
