The Anambra State Government has taken bold steps to curb criminal activities by demolishing a notorious kidnappers' hideout operating under the guise of a hotel.
The property, located along the Onitsha-Owerri Road, was identified as Udoka Golden Point Hotel and Suites, also known as "La Cruise Hotel."
In a statement shared on the official Anambra State New Media X (formerly Twitter) account on Saturday, authorities revealed that the hotel was more than just a base for illicit activities. Shocking discoveries were made during investigations, including over 30 partitioned graves on the top floor of the building and a shrine suspected to have been used for ritualistic practices.
The statement read:
"Oba, Idemili South LGA! Demolition of kidnappers' den disguised as Udoka Golden Point Hotel and Suites, AKA 'La Cruise Hotel,' along Onitsha-Owerri Road. The hotel has well-partitioned graves of over 30 on the last floor with a shrine!"
This revelation has sent shockwaves through the community, sparking widespread outrage and concern. Residents have praised the swift and decisive action of the government in dismantling the criminal hub.
The demolition is part of the state government's ongoing efforts to fight crime and protect citizens, reinforcing its commitment to creating a safer Anambra.
