Police arrest man for beheading Aunt!

Awka-
The Police in Anambra on Tuesday arrested a man for allegedly cutting off his
aunt’s head and dumping her body in the cesspit of an uncompleted
building.
The
State Police Public Relations Officer, Mr Emeka Chukwuemeka, told newsmen in
Awka that the suspect had confessed to the crime and was being held along with
the aunt’s mother, brother and sister.
Chukwuemeka
said that in spite of the confession by the prime suspect, the police would
carry out further investigations to unravel the motive behind the crime.
“This
is a heinous crime as far as we are concerned. We are working on the lead that
he could not have committed the crime alone. We will eventually arrest those
that must have carried out the act with him
he said.
He
said the crime was committed at Amawbia, near Awka, adding that the deceased,
Mrs Margaret Nwanna, was said to have gone missing last week Friday.

“But
none of the family members who lived in the same house with her could give
account of her whereabouts.
“It
was then that concerned relations of the deceased called the police who arrested
every member of the household.
“It
was during police interrogation that the suspect was said to have confessed to
the crime and took the police to the place where the body of the deceased was
dumped.
“Family
sources said that there was no love lost between the deceased and the family of
the prime suspect before the deceased was killed,” he added. (NAN).
