K1: SARS operatives gun down dreaded cultist, kidnapper known for beheading his victims

K1…deadly cultist, kidnapper who beheads victims

After years of trailing one of the most wanted and vicious cultist, armed robber and kidnapper in Imo state, operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) of the Imo state Police Command, on Christmas Day, December 25, 2019 gunned down Charles Onjioru popularly known as K1.

K1 was tracked to Umuohuka Awarra in Ohaji/Egbema LGA of Imo State at approximately 1700hours over heinous crimes he committed in OhajiEgbema and Imo state by a crack team of SARS operatives led by the SARS Commander himself, CSP Victor Godfrey.

He was a leader of Icelanders secret cult and the head executioner; and was also a former ally of the late outlaw and gangster, Don Waney of Omoku, Rivers State.

During his arrest, K1 and his gang engaged SARS operatives in the exchange of gunfire and was eventually overpowered by the police operatives. Having sustained serious bullet injuries on his right thigh, K1 could not escape as usual and was arrested by the combat-ready operatives.

He was rushed to the hospital where he was given medical treatment but died days after.

This suspect who had worked with the outlawed Don-Waney who terrorized Rivers and its environs, from Omoku in Rivers state, was given amnesty in Rivers and Imo state.

Yet, under the relative immunity of the amnesty, he persisted in the criminal underworld and continued to commit heinous crimes by killing and beheading his victims.

Recently on 08/05/2019 at 2100hours, at Cubana Night Club along Portharcourt/Owerri Road, the suspect and his gang in military uniforms in attempt to kidnap one Solomon Uche Eluaga, shot him at close range and he died on the spot.

Eluaga had come home from Rivers state to bury his  deceased father only to meet his untimely death.

Undone yet, they abducted one Osas, a female banker with Access Bank that same night at World Bank area, Owerri and fled the scene before the police team arrived.

Before he was tracked down, Charles Onjioru, K1 had left a long trail of blood and pain, terrorizing OhajiEgbema to the point of villagers deserting their homes especially in the Awarra area of OhajiEgbema where he started as a cult kingpin.

He confessed to various heinous crimes he had committed.
