A woman suspected of being a notorious armed robber has died while in the custody of the police in Lagos.
The
suspect, simply called Alhaja Faith Balogun aka the Queen of robbers is
said to have gone on operations with the dreaded ‘Godogodo’ who was
also recently apprehended.
Alhaja Faith is said to have died due
to complications arising from HIV/AIDS while still under investigation
by the Special Anti-Robbery Squad.
She was said to have slumped and died at SARS on a day she had just returned from the General Hospital Ikeja.
It was gathered that she had also been suffering from and receiving treatment for Tuberculosis.
According
to a reliable police source, immediately detectives confronted Balogun
with her crimes, she had broken down and confessed. She had also told
them that she was HIV positive and on retroviral drugs. The police
thought she had only lost consciousness but she was confirmed dead by
doctors after the police took her to the hospital.
A police
source said: “Presently, SARS is waiting for an autopsy to be carried
out on her, to determine the immediate cause of her death. We however
all knew she was a HIV carrier. She never hid that fact from anyone.”
According
to many robbery suspects, Balogun was one of the strongest, bravest and
most daring females in the underworld. She had robbed with the likes of
Abiodun Ogunjobi, alias Godogodo, and Goke. These two men were also
feared in the robbery world.
She had been named several times by
robbers arrested by SARS in different states to the extent that she
became one of the most featured wanted female robbers on police lists.
Balogun told police that she was 37 years old, but she is believed older
than that. She had three kids, two girls and a boy, but they are all
from different fathers
