The Imo State police command yesterday said that the Auxiliary Bishop of Owerri Archdiocese, Moses Chikwe, who was kidnapped last Sunday, has been freed by his captors even as the police alleged that there was no ransom paid to the kidnappers.

The State Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Orlando Ikeokwu, disclosed this to newsmen in Owerri, in a brief statement announcing the release of the bishop.

He added that the rescue of the Catholic bishop was made possible through what he called “sting operation” carried out by the police, adding that the Bishop was rescued unhurt alongside his driver and other victims.
